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

[–] themaninblack@lemmy.world 26 points 7 months ago (4 children)

He’s a good man. And thorough.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Speak for yourself.

I'm a good man. And thorough.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 5 points 7 months ago

Please slide down your shorts

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

He fixes the cable?

[–] MadBob@feddit.nl 9 points 7 months ago

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

[–] CubitOom 6 points 7 months ago

A perfect 5/7

Sounds like Sheldon's mom.

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

This is not a meme

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

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

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

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

[+] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip -6 points 7 months ago (2 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

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 7 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 7 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 7 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 7 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 7 months ago

Copy pasta is not a meme

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 5 points 7 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

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 2 points 7 months ago

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