Wait, I thought it was one person? I don’t want to gatekeep that there can only be one stock photo memer, I like the memes and would like to see it as a new trend. Just for my understanding, is it already a trend or is the trend starting with this post?
It might be another community. Maybe one of the 196 (as in that’s their name but there are several on different instances)? But why not make it a thing here too?
it was me. i am glad to have started something. what i did wasn’t new so i’m not claiming I invented anything. i just made it visible here on lemmy. spread the news :)
Too late, I’ve joined the Mighty Militia and am going to war against the blasphemous GrayOxen Army. Those heathens dare create false memes that bastardize the one true Mighty Memer.
My favorite Halifax fun fact: In 1917, a munitions ship exploded in Halifax Harbor. To commemorate the event, the City Council created ‘Splodey, the Halifax explosion mascot.
In addition, each public broadcast of Shaggy’s “Mr. Boombastic” is followed by a moment of silence
I loved the Pogo comic strip (old shit from the '50s and one of the main influences on Bill Waterson for Calvin and Hobbes) growing up and it gave me the habit of using non-words like “momenterribly”. I know it makes people think I’m a moron and I don’t care.
It also gave me the habit of saying “Friday the 13th fall on a Tuesday this month”. Same effect and same apathy on my part.
If you remember Pogo, look up political novelist Ross Thomas. He was a Washington based reporter for most of the 1950s and started writing fiction in the 1960s. ‘The Fools In Town Are On Our Side’ is about an attempt to clean up a corrupt Southern city by making it so rotten that even the pimps will vote for reform.
