mm, tumblr's the only one i've been comfortable with because i know exactly what's going to come across my page, and at what rate most days. there's no pressure for anyone to share personal information for any reason, and it's easy to go checking up on a specific blog you're in the mood for
fits with me lol |
Help me make friends and learn "social" m3dia, Galla! I am teh fail!
|
eeehhh
i'm not very social, either. my dash is filled with art, writing, and character analysis. |
Sounds to me like a much better deal than "you're racist and your food tastes lame"
|
yuh. the inherent anonymity relieves a great deal of pressure that you see on a lot of social media sites. your blog is what you enjoy, not the digital mask/resume that on some level, conscious or unconscious, you have to maintain to acceptable standards lest you inadvertently leave a mark on the way that people in your life see you.
i find it to be incredibly freeing because who you are no longer matters nearly as much as your ideas. you have a choice to keep yourself in a bubble, or you can freely and easily interact with those of differing mindsets. plus, the memes are better than twitter and facebook |
I may have to give tumblr another chance vecause I mean....I did always go look at the funny tumblr post pages on Facebook back when I still used it(FB)...
|
there's lots of really good meme blogs lmao
general memes, and fandom specific memes. whatever you're into. |
I'm not a huge meme person. Puns (I guess we now just call them dad jokes?) are generally more my speed. But fandom memes can be okay.
|
puns and dad jokes are just subsections under the meme umbrella lmao
|
I could argue that...
Puns have been around for (to my knowledge) many years before memes even existed. So technically, memes and puns/dad jokes are really just subsections under the umbrella of humor that overlap when someone puts an image behind a typed out pun/joke. XD |
no, no, the concept of memes is very, very old.
looking at the greater picture of memes, there's the socio-evolutionary memes that are long term ideas/adaptations that hang around for decades, if not hundreds of years at one extreme, and then there's the proliferative, fast-paced image based internet memes like you're thinking of now. so i would argue that dad jokes are a sort of inbetween, because despite not always having the internet to facilitate their rapid spread, the vast majority of dad jokes and puns are something that live in the collective mind that reaches through multiple areas, times, and cultures. you could even look at the spread of email humor as a type of meme, and very much a prerequisite to what we currently think of as memes within internet culture. it's all memes, man memes all the way down |
also, there's plenty of text based memes.
a lot of them fit dad humor and puns, but they're not any less memes for lacking an image, lol |
memes are midichlorians
is what a college friend used to say |
My ex had theee tumblrs for his different porn interests that was my first intro to tumblr xD
|
that puts a different spin to that horny on main meme
there are really people like that huh |
Can I join the social media failure brigade as well? 8D
