When Steemit Tried to Meme It

in #funny8 years ago (edited)


      You can't deny it. If you seek out memes on this website you will be disappointed. Of course, there are the occasional good ones. But I mean when you break it down on average, and the volume is not even significant, the quality of the memes that can be found on here STINKS!

     I'm sure some may be offended to see this meme included above. But sometimes people really put out poor ideas and encouraging those ideas are not helping anyone.

     Now for everyone else who can laugh at their weaknesses, as a community this is embarassing; and it is those of you  I hope can appreciate the irony of the message and chuckle and say "Sad but true."

     The fact is that making almost every joke or meme on this site about the site itself is lame. Can we not go on Facebook and enjoy a handful of memes (without having to dig to the center of the Earth for one that's funny) without 9 out of 10 being about Facebook itself? And people love memes, not just non-Steemians. Memes can be quality content. Memes can be more powerful than any article written. So I definitely want to clean up the cobwebs around here. I am encouraging more be made. But we need to try to bring ideas in, rather than forming a niche of conformity. Even "inside jokes" become tiring. 

     And if you do want to come up with something original, please ask some of the people who you know to peer review it. Because there is nothing worse than  to read a meme that no one on the face of the planet would laugh to. It is insulting as a human being.

 LET US CREATE A MOVEMENT. 

 Let's make memes more widespread and GOOD. PLEASE. Your world (of Steem) will thank you!


     Upvote if you laughed or agree. If you lack a sense of humor, no flags -- except Liberland's.

I agree. A lot of memes are lacking. There are some that are really good tho.
