    This is an original work as far as I can tell

    No it isn’t

    What’s the Loss that you’re referring to?

    Is this your first day on the internet? I’m sorry brother, if you don’t know Loss, you don’t have the right to dictate what is a meme and what is not.

      I meant original as in unmodified. You linked to the same comic.

      Yes this is my first day on the internet.

      In the interest of actually having a good faith discussion, I agree with the definition given here, for example:

      If you draw a picture and call it a meme but nobody else recognizes it or wants to replicate it, it’s not a meme.

      It would be interesting to discuss if you disagree with this definition.

        There’s nothing to discuss, I don’t care how you want to define memes. We’re all just here to laugh at funny images and that’s it.

            yea I was bothered by the fact that you were needlessly gatekeeping, if you don’t like the meme just downvote and move on, thx

              if you don’t know Loss, you don’t have the right to dictate what is a meme and what is not

              Who’s gatekeeping?
