Sadly it was torn down once it's enclave status ceased, but if you want to see how it could have looked like from the inside Stray has a very similar atmosphere.
I may just have became desensitized to these things over the years, but if I could choose between having my eyes plucked out or dying I'd certainly choose the former, and that's not even with my eyes being capable of regenerating.
Also the boogie-woogie they do is very grotesque but it's not particularly scary for me either.
Guys am I the one not getting it or being insensitive toward the snails or is this just the classical "mildly alters behavior of intermediate host in order to spread to host more easily" again?
Picture an image with an explanation of said image written on it. That's the anti-meme.
It becomes an anti-meme, by "misunderstanding" the fundamental nature of memes. Like explaining what is happening on the image, instead of reframing it with new text.
Now picture any random image, with any random text. That's the placebo.
A placebo-meme is something that doesn't have any intent of being funny, in fact it has no way of becoming funny (other then trough irony). So yes, those 2017 memes are not placebos, because an inside-joke was already in place, making them "funny" for the intended audiance.
With the current state of memes it became hard to actually construct a placebo, since anything not even remotely funny, something containing absolutely no trace of humor could still be picked up as a "senseless joke".
Some parts of these articles are always so weird for me. It's not that I disagree or don't understand the point, but that it's always such a stupid part where they say "...now then, Trump said we're X and Y, now this actually isn't true, because in fact, he is." and I can't help but very silently yell to myself "my brother in Christ you are yet to prove your point in a logically sound way". I mean I know that he is and he acts like people other than him are, but it shouldn't be assumed I have that knowledge.
I think it's just bad writing from the journalists' part, that's all.
True that may be, however anyone with the capacity to reason should have been aware that this may not be the appropriate response to such an offense, especially with their future goals in mind. Someone bestowed with such an ability should also understand, that telling people about it is itself not the brightest idea, especially if one does it honestly. The question remaineth: is she an imbecile?
(yep i head some fun with this)
