Yeah you got me. I caught somethung simialer on fb. I just made it my own. Ie changed wording.

not sure what you mean? I just used that as Ella, has reminded me of those commercials since the 70s :)

Oh ok. I thought you were callin me out on a repost. I try not to but I caught somethin simialar on facef**k yesterday and decided to share in my own way. But is anything original any more? It was funny...

Nah, I wouldn't do that... I find it kind of petty when that's done. If its an unimaginative repost, I just don't vote or comment. You might want to consider posting that live or memorpost... that's pretty funny!

Im also an artist and they say there is no original art left. To me Everything is a variation of an original idea with ones own nuances.

All art is a "building off of" process. To add a twist that gives a new perspective is original thought.

Thats what I like about comments, alot o memes come from them. And we do get alot of pretty good threads in the comments. Just as if not more entertaining than a meme itself. Its like the meme is a starting point.

Agreed, most don't realize that the secret of Raydog and Socrates is their submissions leave openings for great comment streams.

Theres quite afew memers I like to follow for that reason. And if I get a good stream of o one of my memes...its not about upvotes n front page, its a bunch of us tryin to outdo or upstage eachother. Im learning this now. Gotta cause I dont make front page alot.

I don't know that its as much upstaging as feeding off one another to take it all to another level. Like the original snl cast or when you see 2 or 3 good bands on stage together. I always try to leave comments on the ones I really like, to encourage the maker, and hopefully that people will stop to view the meme and see what I saw in it.

Yeah. Maybe upstage wasnt the right word...but yeah its fun making eachother laugh. We're all from all over the place but what keeps us together is a common meme ground if you will.

For sure, and I think we would all make a very odd looking group photo!

Thank you...I told someone that awhile back, that I try to submit memes that are open for comments or even provoke a comment thread...that's one of the keys to a great meme..I'm not above a repost, whether intentional or unintentional, but I definitely try to keep 'em original more often than not...

Agreed, and it is an art form in a way, matching the words to an image in a way that is engaging. You and Socrates just have a great knack of doing it consistently, but there are plenty of others who I look forward to seeing their submissions in the new releases. I love getting to those 1st, its a little like being that 1st guy to paint the mustache on the Mona Lisa. :)
