Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I mean, yeah, but why choose memes? Do they literally just like looking at them (for hundreds of hours)? If so, why- as in what feeling do they get when they look at memes? Have memes played a significant role in their life? Are they making a statement about the world- and if so, what?

is classical paintings of memes not a meme in itself and in becoming so, has it not become art?

That’s one way of seeing it! I’d be interested in hearing more about their thoughts in that case. If they weren’t considering that, I’d want to know what their motivations were.

The only thing I’m saying here is that I don’t think this person has no personality. Even if they were just doing it for the meme, there’s something deeper there.
