Is there a six word stories community on Lemmy? 🤔

Maybe it's just me getting older, but I fail to see how this is a "meme"

[-] TheGreenGolem@lemm.ee 21 points 1 year ago

Nowadays every fucking funny picture is a meme. Like apparently every photo that you are on is a selfie regardless of who took it. I hate it.

[-] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

Malapropisms.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

The battle is lost. I think we just have to accept it.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago

meme has evolved to just mean "funny thing", and like, do you have a better word for that? it's not a joke, and i'm not going to start saying "funny thing".

closest i can think of would be "a funny" which sounds worse than calling everything a meme

[-] hemmes@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

But that's what it is, a funny thing. Why can't that be said? Because this is absolutely not a meme, not by a stretch. This image won't be repurposed with different text, taking its meaning and applying it to a different context like memes do.

[-] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

So because you can't summon the fortitude to say "funny thing", the whole community has to be flooded with garbage posts that are not memes in any way? That makes a ton of sense 👍

[-] Rambi@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

I agreed with your first comment, but now I think you may in fact be getting old.

[-] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
[-] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I think it is. I'm not even that old but I've gone from nobody I knew IRL having ever heard the word to everyone knowing it but with a watered down meaning.

[-] dill@lemmy.one 23 points 1 year ago

This does bring up an interesting question? What did it mean for a mirror to be used?

[-] octoperson@sh.itjust.works 65 points 1 year ago

Just reflect on it for a while

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago

It was probably never mounted on a wall or door or whatever.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

But what about the roof of their car to defend from the 5G nanobots?

"oh, it's used then"

[-] reflex@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

What did it mean for a mirror to be used?

Rails of booger sugar have been snorted off it.

[-] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 23 points 1 year ago

Plot twist, they went blind and we are all horrible.

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

Blindness doesn't stop the photons/magic from bouncing off the mirror, they just couldn't see it. Even in the photo, the mirror is visibly turned on and reflecting things. It's very much used.

[-] brewbellyblueberry@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 year ago

the mirror is visibly turned on

That's a sentence.

Yeah you wanna use that mirror, yeah?

[-] mibo80@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

wake up babe new fetish just dropped

[-] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Ah but then is it the mirror that uses the world or the world that uses the mirror? Is the Mirror just now starting it's own Fools journey and need to gain experience by being viewed to expeince 'the world' or is it a passive thing. Aren't all things and beings being 'used' by the entropy of all? Language is fun ;3

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

If a tree falls in a forest does anyone hear it

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Is anyone in the forest?

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

Owner is a vampire.

[-] joneskind@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

I am gonna put my take here, with a little piece of personal information.

I had a girlfriend who love to make it in front of mirrors. I almost forgot about it until I saw the bed's reflection in the mirror.

I might be wrong though, but that's when the "never used" made me laugh.

[-] atrielienz@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

This is bigoted against Vampires.

[-] Land_Strider@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I don't know how the part that is "bigoted" came out of it but I'll allow it considering that the vampires and the mirrors have a relation.

[-] jlow@beehaw.org 14 points 1 year ago
[-] zyratoxx@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

The real question is:

Never used for what?

[-] Senex@reddthat.com 11 points 1 year ago

Self reflection?

[-] Whisper06@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 year ago

I was going through one of my towns but and sell pages and found a post of a “never used” dress and the lady was wearing it. I asked if it was never used then why is she wearing it. Argument ensued with other commenters and she ended up removing the pictures of her in it

[-] kamenlady@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Do you know if she sold the pristine dress?

[-] Whisper06@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

No idea, I didn’t follow it that far lol

[-] ohlaph@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

As long as you don't see yourself, or anyone or anything, or unwrap ot, or let it exist, you're good

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Maybe they meant "never installed or mounted".

Either that or they were talking about their brain.

[-] CarlsIII@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Nobody said “you talkin to me” into it

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Also valid are "Ayyyyyy" and "Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me. I'd fuck me hard."

[-] downpunxx@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

gran vag? no i don't think i will, i couldn't see myself in there

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Don't be too hard on gran vag! Take it from Benjamin Franklin:

The Face first grows lank and wrinkled; then the Neck; then the Breast and Arms; the lower Parts continuing to the last as plump as ever: So that covering all above with a Basket, and regarding only what is below the Girdle, it is impossible of two Women to know an old from a young one. And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior, every Knack being by Practice capable of Improvement.

[-] dbx12@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

That was an awkward scene in AC 3

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

don't knock it til you've tried it.

[-] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

That's just where they store it

[-] TronnaRaps@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago
[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's why it's so vast and spacious
