One Does Not Simply

You forgot Cartoon (not Anime) week.

MST3k has so much potential for meming, imho. :)

Here's the schedule for March

Yeah that's the memes I'm talking about. I think that helps. :{D

< There's my entry for fart week.

And you should submit yours,,,

It's currently old ad week

PS: IT'S MONTY PYTHON WEEK TOO RIGHT NOW!!!

Old ad week started on a Wednesday because the theme weeks previously started on Wednesday. It'll get straightened out soon enough. Python week ended the same day old ad week started.

The confusion in the different theme weeks comes about because someone decides to have a theme week, announces it on the day it starts, and often gets discouraged about it. Promotions for Old Ad Week started about two weeks ago. CousinJohn, DerUbersau, and myself started promoting it. Other theme weeks popped up, out of nowhere. I wasn't even kn the leaderboard when I announced it. I had asked around to find out how you go about having a theme week. I was pointed to GhostOfChurch who was trying to get things organized, including sign up for various weeks. After Old Ad Week is Classic Rock Week. April also has some theme weeks in place, I have one in May that incorporates two other events that occur that week.

Confusing? It happens when the inmates run the asylum.

If you wanted to run a theme week, you can. If you want to have a theme week, go to https://imgflip.com/m/ThemeWeek and see what weeks are available. Sign up. This way you have a support system in place to promote and participate. Or you can decide to start your own week and hope you get support.

Theme weeks aren't a competition, but an extension of our meme making. I see a lot of people stuck for ideas for memes. You've seen them, "I needed a third submission today and this is it." It's to help those with writers block. Anyone can join or ignore the theme weeks. Whatever trips your trigger. Or you can do one or two if you feel like it. Tje thing is, you can do almost anything you want. The only thing you'll get punished for is a TOS violation, but that's anything you post.

I had that ThemeWeek page bookmarked, but the way comments post here, you'd have to look a whole thread top to bottom every time to make sure you didn't miss something.
And I was waiting for the old ads one, but with the plerthora of meme week themes and this week blurring by me (I still owe you and two others replies from days ago), I forget which week it was.

a1508a and me have some ideas - Do a whole movie in a meme thread (we once covered the whole Road Warrior in 6 memes!), a B&W theme, a B&W movie week), but are gonna wait till there's less of a flood,,,

With the Eternal September being what it is, just waiting for the me toos to calm down may take a while. Dazzer tried months ago to have a theme week for, get ready for it, Old Ad Week. At a time when people expect instant gratification from the internet, it's hard to tell them to watch and observe. Last year, when Mr Jingles did Pulp Art Week, I didn't take part. This year, I did. It was followed by several great theme weeks, and I decided to find out what it took. Not everybody is onboard with that, which caused the confusion.

That movie meme idea sounds interesting. Need to see that.

I wish I could find when we did the original one in 6, 3 each. Gotta search through a pile of comments. It was funny tho,,,
But after there's a slow down, then we'll do it. I'll leave it up to him, since he's more familiar with stuff around here,,,

Someone told me recently B&W memes usually don't get much notice.
Altough some of the Rat Pack ones did, but that was about them,,,

It's difficult coming up with good ideas for themes, and with everyone jumping on the bandwagon, it's difficult to run a good theme, as you pointed out. I still have my old comics page from when I had my comic book shop. I don't post there, much, but I still have my followers. I can promote my comic book theme week on several of the comic book sites as well. May get some new, creative, flippers from there. But definitely some interest.

One thing about old ads that's nice is the did have a lot of good color ads.

Great, I've been waiting for old ad week, but then thought this was the week of memes that ALL are captioned, "IT'S BANANA WEEK, MEMERS!" after the way fab, "OUCH, I STEPPED ON A LEGO" week that lasted two weeks.

Not too mention it's also '420' *wink* week for the kidz who think that saying "420" is oh so edgy and rebellious, while as a legalized cure for college sciatic glaucoma, {{M-A-R-I-J-U-A-N-A}} ((don't say it out loud, I don't wanna go to Alcatraz), pot is sooooo passe (wasn't legalization supposed to STOP cannabis smoking?

Aaaaaand, in order to combat the stereoptype that we are now a racist dictatorial war mongering former Federation of America, this is hitler week too!

Plus, beginning mid week doesn't help, since the beginning of the theme week is already half over and phewwwwww, I am lost,,,

k, Modda rant fo the day is done,,,

That is awesome.
And you've earned it.

BOB ROSS RULES!!!

I don't know how much j can participate, but I'll try. April third is still a bit away, and I haven't got a clue what to contribute to it. I'll come up with an idea and incorporate it into this week's theme.

Thanks for the help, mate. Doesn't take a lot to inspire me.

If only we could have fonts that looked like paint dabbed by tissue paper!
