Show her your folder of incest porn to prove you’re not gay anon.
Hwai arr hue gae.
fake: mom “found” folder
gay: collects pics of naked men
Not gay, as long as the folder is called “no homo”.
The thing about moms is that they will ask if you are gay over the smallest most trivial things. In many cases it seems like they want you to be gay.
I imagine a reason for this is that women think maintaining and forming relationships with women is easy so if their own child fails to do so, their only conclusion is “he must lack the incentive to do so”
But anon literally has muscular nude men on his computer. In a dedicated folder.

I think this might be a generational difference in showing acceptance. My dad asked me if I was a lesbian all the time, because he wanted to reassure me that he still loved me if so. I found it very annoying when I was in middle/high school, but in my case it was basically harmless, so whatever. Hopefully your mom’s just doing the same :)
Just tell your mom you’re into bodybuilding.
Body builders clearly aren’t gay, they’re just totally into being ripped and admiring other ripped men’s muscles.
Why do people even keep folders of memes? Are they archiving for future generations?
Can’t be me /s
Google photos. Shame on you.
I feel like it’s a form of brain training to be able to remember the right sequence of words to search to summon a niche meme
Meme folders are the junk food of internet society
Everyone is about instant gratification smdh
I do know one person who has a litany of Psych memes ready for nearly any situation.
On the phone I usually save and upload them to share with people, but not deleting them afterwards leaves me with a collection of memes I like, that I can browse every few months-years and look at how things have changed
Yes.
(It’s so I can reply quickly with them, but this is the only one I have saved.)
Yeah but how is digging through a folder of memes any faster than simply googling the image you want?
Have you seen Google lately?
I try not to
I dont archive memes but I think its 2-part
- They can’t google 4chan OC because it disappears before it can be indexed
- Its not just about finding an image, but also about finding an image with the right caption, so they dont have to caption it themselves, because work
As a minor language nerd, I would like to posit a 2.5, if you will: memery as a dialect and individual memes as bespoke words.
Like, consider this sequence of emoji: 🌍 🧑🚀 🔫 🧑🚀
Chances are, you’re familiar enough with memes that you can infer the meaning of an English sentence which has nothing to do with the actual representational meaning of those emoji independently. By placing them in this specific context, I have communicated a meaning beyond their intended representation.
By a similar token, different specific memes under the same genre (e.g. Gigachad) may be equated with synonyms, and different contexts may call for different “words” (i.e. individual memes).
I pray Lord Apollo is kind enough to me for that to make sense because Hypnos is buzzing 'round my head and it’s getting hard to think
Sokath, his eyes uncovered!
It’s bang on how the aliens in the TNG episode Darmok communicate. Their spoken language is based entirely on metaphors and historical/cultural references, and meaning is derived from a shared understanding of those memes within the present context.
I suppose its the same speed but in my case it felt less awkward to fetch ^ image above than to search “meme where a black guy is facing the viewer and pointing to his car radio in a car”
And in anon’s case its way more efficient then googling “naked gigachad image, black and white, bearded short hair big pecs” and hoping the right one will come up.
So I suppose it’s a specificity problem
