anyone have this meme without the stupid useless fucking twitter comment from some asshole nobody whose perspective on the meme adds nothing except ruin its shareablity?
Side note, am I the only one thinking a lot of people use the word "meme" wrong like this? To me, the "meme" is the format. The conceptual joke. Not the individual example, as in this case.
lol, I mean, sure. Let me rephrase: am I the only one who remembers the word meme to originally mean only the conceptual joke format rather than a specific sample of the joke format?

I honestly have no idea if you're referring to avatar or m night shamalayan avatar.

There is no Avatar by M. Night Shyamalan. The Earth king has invited you to watch Nickelodeon.

And Netflix?

It wasn't a terrible movie. It was ok. Just not something you'd be sad about only watching once.

Watched both and the cat is superior in every way.
Except it watched the real-action movie of avatar. That was so bad their trilogy got only one movie

I didn’t even get the point of that movie. Tell the same story again, but in less time? Why?

As a comment in Youtube about the Aang vs Ozai video said, more or less: "There's Avatar, and there's the military movie about blue cosplayers".

It can be either. I think most people refer to specific instances though.
victorz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
Huh. That's not how I grew up with the term.
E.g. "it's become a meme at this point" doesn't make sense if it refers to an instance, as well as it does referring to the concept of the joke.

Why not both? In English, every word is a noun, a verb and an adjective, each with 28 1/2 meanings, anyway.

That's probably better. (?) 😁

Pretty much exactly the vibe I was going for, haha

You're right per the technical definition. Just assume they mean [an instance of] this meme.
We're lucky they're only a little bit off.
victorz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
Yeah I mean I don't mean to complain or anything, I'm just wondering if I'm going crazy or if my memory actually serves me well. 😁
PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y
Nah. You're right.
