Thunder is the sound of angels having sick mid-air anime battles.

Have you seen the tv show Legion?
The final showdown is between two telepaths, so they're fighting eachother in a sick mid-air anime battle.

While singing Behind Blue Eyes at one another.

Forgot about Ken M. Thanks for reminding me. Good memories.

[–] themaninblack@lemmy.world 27 points 11 months ago (4 children)

He’s a good man. And thorough.

Please slide down your shorts

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

He fixes the cable?

[–] MadBob@feddit.nl 9 points 11 months ago

I laughed, I saw the name Ken M, and I knew why I'd laughed.

A perfect 5/7

Sounds like Sheldon's mom.

Little known fact, but the "M" in "Ken "M is for "meme".

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Ken M is meme. Thusly, anything Ken M says is also meme.

[–] CheesyFox@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

what's your definition of a meme? For me it certainly counts as one

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip -5 points 11 months ago (3 children)

From Reddit:

All posts must follow typical meme setup/design: an image/gif/video with some sort of caption; mods have final say on what is (not) a meme; tldr:

  • No titles as meme captions
  • A GIF/video alone (without caption) is not a meme [especially screen recording / scrolling]
  • Do not post screenshots of people saying something funny on Twitter/Tumblr/Reddit/TikTok/text messages
  • No unedited webcomics
  • No text-only memes
  • No IRL recreations or creepshots; no selfies or making friends into a meme

A comment is not a meme. It lacks depth and is low quality posting

[–] Dragon@lemmy.ml 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ken M tweets are honorary memes

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip -3 points 11 months ago

No they really aren't

From Reddit:

... Lol, STFU.

Reddit" guidelines" aren't the end all be all to every platform.

I dislike when people attack others online, so I apologize for the above, but I'm not deleting it. Are you serious tho?

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 months ago

No but I think r/memes is a pretty good roll model. They do a really good job of keeping down the spam.

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That doesn't match up with what KnowYourMeme.com says

Memes are broadly defined as culturally transmitted information or ideas and beliefs that can be spread from one organism, or group of organisms, to another.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Is know your meme composed primarily of twitter screenshots? Last time I checked the answer was no

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It has a fair share of copypasta, and I am curious what would make copypasta a meme, but not a twitter screenshot.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 months ago

Copy pasta is not a meme

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And its only gatekeeping of you have a physical gate

Lemmy works by subscribing to communities. Nothing here makes sense when the content doesn't fit to the community it's posted to

If nothing here makes sense then neither does your comment. Checkmate atheist
