Don't worry I dual boot on my desktop and Linux only on my laptop. I just happened to be on the windows partition when the idea struck. Also I haven't made memes in a long time so thought including paint would be funny. And it is.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago

It was hilarious, keep doing it that way lel. Also, name the file "made_with_memetic.png"

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I thought that MS Paint window was part of the joke 🤔

Get in the van.

What?

No, we’re just going for a drive.

Just a drive.

The good thing is, if it happens it won’t last long because lemmy has the worst case of collective ADHD ever recorded and we go through trends in a maximum of 3 days, as was ordained by the first lemmy moment.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Speak for yourself. I'm still deep into beans.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

There was an hour when I wasn’t on Lemmy and I missed the whole beans thing. I logged in afterwards and it was all anyone could talk about, but I had missed the whole thing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That’s fine. Individuals can have an autistic hyper fixation all they want. It has a fair bit of crossover with ADHD but is still it own separate thing.

Aha that makes sense. I was just being facetious and picked the lamest but earliest Lemmy meme I could think of.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh damn. Were you not here for the first lemmy moment?

I can’t find the original but here’s the archive: https://lemmy.world/post/616615

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes I was there, however I find the beans thing more silly, whilst they poop thing a bit distasteful, however quirky it was.

The good thing is that the entire user base gets to experience these, which was much the same in early Reddit. Present day reddit had few emergent, site wide memes anymore as it's too splintered and too farmy imho.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well.

You’ve gone and ruined my joke.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sorry, however you kinda did that to mine as well.

Kiss and make up?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Yea, you’re right.

Sorry bb. Do we have to stop at kissing? I’m an enthusiastic consent kinda person so I don’t wanna come on too strong with the expectation of make-up sex.

Edit wait: you’re an adult right? God please be an adult

Well, It's out of the box now.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago (3 children)

And I'm still not comfortable calling my fellow Lemmy people "Lemmings."

up until this point in history, calling someone a lemming has kinda been an insult.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'm cool with it. Because it gives me a chance to correct folk's false assumptions about lemmings.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Im not a fan either. I have been a reddit user for several years before I came here but always avoided the lingo wherever possible.

Let’s leave it over there, with all the other painfully unfunny in-jokes and dead references

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Well, calling someone a redditor can also be perceived as insulting so maybe they can both serve a similar function.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

This is beyond science

Unrelated but https://paint.js.org/ is a web app similar to MS paint for those interested.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That's really nice. Too bad many features in it are not implemented. I liked that old version of MS Paint so when I got Win 7 I copied the exe from old Windows version to it.
