Wait, let me get this straight. People say meme outside of the internet? I've never heard anybody ever say it.

game companies are putting it in titles. it's become a synonym of 'awesome' which is totally wrong.
Hell even businesses use it incorrectly

A 7mw turbine is big, but it is not 'epic' >_>
yeah, except MLPiNvidious01 said:i love all memes, crack me up
Ditto.Summary Man said:"You are already dead" will never cease to be funny.

Smision said:yeah, it has a formula.
huge karma =
--shocking news title (preferably something negative about a conservative politician, reddit is liberal to a serious fault and makes me pretty sad for the left.)
--any portal reference
--My girlfriend knitted me a [insert nerd reference here, but preferably a portal reference]
--fake/photoshopped facebook conversation (these are the worst...like something an idiot family member would forward you)
--Catch-all: look at what's popular, create a dumb spin on it, post to imgur, submit to reddit
then the comments section is all puns.
and there's a general air of people thinking they're nerdy and smart on the site and that it's much different than digg and youtube.

I never heard or saw that one. That face is so damn funny.G-Fex said:U jelly?
Luminate said:This. In fact, pretty much every Youtube comment with the intent to get likes is awful.
"____ people are Justin Beiber fans"
"Video sucks after (end of video timer)"
"I like the part where (says scene that was repeated constantly in the video"
"You say Lady Gaga, I say Metallica, etc, etc, etc. Like this if you still like real music"
Puddles said:The whole "Lady Gaga is a super-talented songwriter/outstanding musician" meme.
I get that the shit she puts out clicks with some people. Fuck it, I liked Just Dance and Alejandro. But I'm not going to pretend that she's anything more than an average musician at best. It's nice that she plays the piano, but she's no fucking Elton John up there.
She puts out decent pop songs, like Katy Perry or Rihanna. Why the fuck do people have to pretend she's more than that? She has quote from Letters to a Young Poet tattooed on her arm? I bet the guys who wrote Transformers 2 also read Rilke in university.
Every time I read about how Gaga is some world-class talent, I feel like I'm watching a Best Picture push for X-Men First Class or something.
This has become bannable because mods didn't like it either. The phrase 'u mad' isn't entirely banned I don't think but only when you're in a debate with someone and you use it after someone has typed out a real response/argument.mxgt said:I'm sick of "u mad?" whenever someone can't make a decent retort.
Yeah this shit annoys me to no end.Journeywalker said:Referring to NeoGAF as some monolithic credo-generating organization.
"Aren't you the same board who actively support drawings of muhammad which in turn offends muslims and yet you're here getting pissy over something."
That's not a meme. That's just stupidity.Journeywalker said:Referring to NeoGAF as some monolithic credo-generating organization.

We use the word "salty" all the time in NFL-GAF to basically describe people getting defensive and angry because they're drowning in their salty tears when their team loses.
