Sure, not everything went as expected.
That said, plenty of people are still having a hard time and many are at least a little ticked off. The results and aftermath of HF20 reminded me of this photo that I took a couple years ago for a photo contest that @jamtaylor had ran. The photo was based upon a "matrix-like" scenario and was originally titled, "There is No Fork."
I thought that it also may be a good illustration for how reality does not always line up with expectations... ahem, Hardfork 20.
HF20 MEME CONTEST
This opportunity to get your HF20 aggression out will be in the form of a meme contest. In fact, if you want to use any of these images for a HF20 post, you are more than free to do so, just credit @papa-pepper as the photo source.
So, what are the rules? Like usual, they are simple. Just take a FORK image from this post and make a meme out of it. You can use sites like https://imgflip.com/memegenerator to make your meme, or just edit it in paint and upload the results. Reply to this post with your HF 20 meme to officially enter, but you are free to make a post featuring your meme if you want to.
The contest will run until this post pays out, and I'll select some winners from the entries that I receive prior to that. The big winner will receive 20 STEEM in honor of HF20, with runner ups being rewarded with a smaller quantity. Have fun, and I hope that this will help you vent if you need to!
Also, you do not have to be angry to enter. Anyone is free to participate and you can even make funny memes instead of angry memes, or just pretend to be angry for the sake of the contest. Options are limitless, so get creative and have fun! By entering my contest you are giving me full permission to use your entry however I see fit.
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:
proof-of-forks
Until next time…

Dang! Tru dat!
It was a clusterfuck but fortunately we're back in business and our steems are safe.
I found the whole thing educational. I learned some new terms:
Using a hard FORK for an UPgrade is called a FORK UP.
A major upgrade with a hard fork is called: A MAJOR FORK UP.
As for the meme. I asked myself the question. Where does one send silverware to polish off its education?
LOL - HARK FORK U!
No forks, but it is how i feel, and it is my artwork.
The fish faces are fantastic, like, so emo... it conveys. Well done.
I like it! I mean, I don't like the accuracy... ah, you know what I mean!
Good idea!...:)...
ahhahaha so good
This about sums up how much i like my vp resetting itself, and yes i made this myself.
Hi @papa-pepper, just the heading and the title of this post has put a lot of smiles on my face.
There is room for joy and happiness in every situation. Thanks for reaching out.
Thanks for enjoying it!
Here is some Mene 24k platinum on a fork, I took this photo during the forking. Just including this for forking fun :)
Maybe this works...
LOL!
Here's my contribution, hope I didn't fork up XP
alternate texts
If anyone is lacking ideas, Methinks a Wolverine-spin off (or should that be fork off ?) might implement itself nicely in this setting :)
Thanks for those, I got a laugh!
Very good of you @papa-pepper. Even though the going is getting tougher, we still need some good smile on our faces. The dangerous red banner is now blue. That is a sign of hope.
Thanks @newhyt! Glad that you smiled at this!
Here goes...
LOL!
I was hoping someone get it. :-)

What's HF20 all about?
Posted using Partiko Android
Playing with our emotions and dependency.
They have introduced new RC concept which is taking toll on new users.

Steemit Hard Fork in 5 years when a new better blockchain social media arises.
Not in mood to post these days. As such I thought might as well make a meme post it has been like a year. Enjoy or not. The fork dies at the end #spoilers.

Awesome man!! Thank you so much.
^^That's a good cliff jump!^^
Nice haircut @papa-pepper!! Great contest. Love creative free reign. .....thinking cap on!
I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE FORK IT WAS ALL ABOUT
Not enough information and when I was told ..it was not even the truth..So what the fork was going on? It is important to tell all steemians. Even minnows.

Forky forky he's our man, if he can't do it .... annnnnnnnnnnd it was a trainwreck.
I don't have an image, just wanted to post a stupid line of text :)
Still enjoyed it! Upvote!
Shadows can be deceiving and I've spent the past week really trying to figure out what all of this means, it's good to see a contest in honor of the hardfork 20
@papa-pepper
I don't how to feel...
I can't do anything on Steemit...anymore.
Joined Weku (lapalm)
They had issues today... and I now messed up there.
I guess I am back to facebook...
Or better yet.. to heck with it all..

In a nutshell...
This isn't really a MEME as much as it's a historically accurate timeline of what happened... I'll try to come up with something more clever and less depressing when I've fully recovered from this epic disappointment.
Ouch! If that is your "less clever/more depressing" entry, I can't wait to see what is next!
Haha, awesome! Many great entries so far.
Here's my entry @papa-pepper 😊
My entry. I'm pleased with the final result :)😁
Indeed..... It's a forked situation.
Ouch!

Thanks very much, had a good laugh, was entertaining and fun, and learned a lot.
My HardFork-20 Meme. Respect to @papa-pepper. We aren't discouraged but rather prepared to bounce back even stronger.
This contest is a hoot. HF20 was a bit of a frustrating inconvenience, but in terms of the really tough stuff in life, this was just not that big of a deal. But I had fun creating a meme anyway!
LOL!
Hee hee. Thanks so much for the reward, @papa-pepper!

I just saw this and then I thought hehe I know what would be funny.
It is funny, in a twisted, demented sort of way... I laughed.
Glad I could help cause a laugh
Yes, I'm entering with a complete post 😉
