memes

Tbf, the new movie was kinda mid. I know I watched it too, but I also forgot most of it afterwards. Not saying the original Blade Runner was the best movie ever made, but it's at least memorable and I just assumed people would at least know what it was.

I don't think people would think of replicant being associated with Blade Runner in a vacuum either, but when paired with a picture/a gif of Rachel, then I would assume people at least knew that it's a blade runner reference.

I dunno. When I was young on the internet, there was a ton of popculture - especially American popculture - that I know nothing about because I'm not American, but I learned a bunch of it, as well as slang etc to get a basic understanding of the "language" people spoke on the internet. Which is 80% memes anyway.

I guess I find it weird that there are people out there who don't do any kind of research to understand contexts in conversations online and end up assuming weird things when most contexts are a simple search away.

I also refuse to believe there are people who don't know what Harry Potter is xD
