Humans that might just be memes.


Sometimes I see a picture of a bro which has ‘gone viral’ on the internet, or a picture that is ‘inherently funnie’ to some1 with a ‘morbid/sardonic sense of humor.’ Then I wonder if I am trivializing their existence. Or if they have some sort of physical deficiency, I might be exploiting their flawed existence (according 2 me) on my lifestreamweblog to ‘make people laugh’ with me ‘at some one who hasn’t been as fortunate as me.’

This bro is battling morbid obesity. This battle might ‘just be a meme’, at least to 90% of the readers of this blog. However, the other 10% are probably ‘arm chair commentators’ who feel like the fact that this meme exists is ‘wrong.’ The meme exists–there is no right or wrong when something is ‘going viral’ in the memesphere. Even if the viral rate is not high, some memes can be ‘timeless’ and trickle down to the furthest reaches of the meme sharing universe.

It’s just kinda weird how my life is important to ‘me,’ but to other people, it might just be a meme.
Searching for a way to live my life authentically without making things seem ‘like I am trying too hard to be a bloggable meme’ aka ’some ass hole who just wants attention.’

These are memes that comment on the fatbro meme, creating a memecosystem.


[Via Human After Yall]

Sometimes humans who turned into memes are kinda sad, but then I just ‘lol’ at them and find another meme to absorb into my stream of consciousness.

(WTF is a meme?)

    carrot top is also a carrot bottom… i can see some authentic o-natural bush sticking out of his low riding cargos… you became a meme after the hacker business… reminded me of when britteny and obama’s twitter got hacked… thats how i got onto twitter hearing about that shit.. probably some people got onto this site after news of the hacking.

    thanks carles. now carrot top will chase me in my dreams, pumping like 80 pounds of iron on each arm and partially exposing his ruddy nethers.

    Dude if you are @tao_lin and you come out about it you will be a disgrace. Keep this site authentic and do not change a thing. Unmasking will be the undoing! You will be a meme who flames out faster than shifty/seth/shellshock/binzer/benzer(?).

    Be true to thy self carles. Coming out is selfish and would only help to launch (semi-launch) your career.

    Keep hipster runoff true. bro.

    What the world is starting to become is just a model after anonymous websites. Once a meme leaks out it becomes just another part of pop-culture. Nobody receives credit, and the term meme is so loosely thrown around as another name for “an inside joke summed up in one word”

    i just wanted to get a few things off my chest. fuck all of the readers of this stupid site. do you realize that this site is complete garbage? what do you people even value? why do you support this site? Don’t you realize he is just making advertising money off you?

    you stupid fuck faces are just looking for the next big thing. but your lazy. get up off your a$$es and actually DO something. you probably come to this site because you think you’re a creative type. but your lazy and stupid and only care about how things LOOK-not what you actually are inside. most of you people are just a bunch of misfits looking for validation for your lazy ways. the truth is that you are just like every one else. just like Joe the Plummer or any other stupid secretary working a temp job and wasting time on the internet all day

    at the end of the day, there’s more to life than trying to make your personal brand into a commodity. stop standing on the sidelines of life and actually LIVE. get off the internet. stop reading dumb blogs that write stupid mumbo jumbo about music and use quotations and the word “meme” too much. you are all afraid to live your life. you want it to mean something, but at the same time, you want every one else to feel more trivial than your life. i’ve got news for all of you–you’re as meaningless as i am. but this retarded blog is the most meaningless thing I have ever read.

    every one who has a blog is stupid. just a bunch of failed journalists trying to let their opinion be known. but charles is a psychopath. he doesn’t care about the goodness in anything. he is just tearing down everything and making excuses for everyone, developing a terrible, terrible world view for people to think is ‘cool.’ i don’t give a shit if you call it ART or if you call it social terrorism. it has to be stopped.

    you fuckfaces will just keep reading this shit, and spreading these ideas. but the truth of the matter is that your all lemmings. i know this site isnt different from pitchfork or vice or any other bullshit glorified web magazine, but still, they arent as terrible as this blog.

    fuck any one who reads this blog. you should be ashamed of yourselves and your parents should take away your internet for a year and make you live on the streets, just like me. you fuckers don’t even know that there’s REAL PEOPLE out there who are LIVING LIFE and MAKING A LIVING. you just want to sit there and gawkerfy everything. like i said, i am deeply disturbed by today’s internet culture and the trends amongst the latest generation. every thing is like a mirror and every one just wants to reflect. they waste time on their bullshit myspaces posting photos and creating themselves. it’s just fucking bullshit. waste of time. you spend so much time thinking about who you are that you don’t even become someone. needless to say, with sites like this promoting that, this world is headed down the shitter. of course kids are gonna makes mistakes, but not if they are told that it is okay to make mistakes and that it is cool to act like a dumbfuck all the time.

    all of the peopel who read this blog think they are smarter then every one. they think that Carles is some sort of genius who sees what is real and makes estute observations. the truth is that he is just a bullshit armchair fluff philosopher. u wanna read some real shit? actually pick up a book. Read some Salinger, or Kant, or Ayn Rand, or Richard Wright. even maybe Mitch Albom. you fuckers probably can’t even read. you probably can’t even read this post because you just come here to look at cool pictures and listen to shitty electronic music.

    fuck all of you. you are all shitheads and one day this blog will be dead. the world will probably still be shittier, but i wont have to be reminded by inttellectual fucktards of this allegdly brilliant website thats so true and funny. if only you people could realize where you stand in the big picture. you are just lemmings who buy things and go to concerts and then learn to hate

    there is just so much hate in the scene that we are tearing apart. i am deeply disgusted with whats going on in the world right now and because of sites like these, we are losing our culture because we are afraid to be ourselves. ive got news for all of you–our world is not going to get any better any time soon, and this website is not helping it. fuck music blogs, culture blogs, and blogs that post cool looking pictures. if you really want to save the economy, how about keeping ass hole millenials from wasting time at work all day looking at cool shit that makes them feel connected. that would save us like millions of hours worth of work if we just made you fuckheads work in the fields like the slaves that you should be.

    but i cant fix this society, and i can fix years of parenting mistakes by your aloof parents. i’d just like you all to know that i am right, and i have a reason to believe these things and what I am doing has a cause. i have done more with my life than all of you and when i die, i will be happier than all of you because i won’t have led a cowardly life.

    fuck all of you. fuck charles, fuck this blog. im out of here.
    you may think that this is just a charles joke gimmick, and he might even pretend that it is one after he contacts hsi blogger host. but i jsut want you all to know from the bottom of my heart that i fucking hate everything to do with this website and you fuckers are going down. trust me.

    you are all fucking lemmings, and lemmings get led off cliffs because you don’t have fucking brains.
    fuck you.
