There is an old saying that "You learn something new every day!". Well, lately I have been learning how to use memes. If you have never heard of them, they are pictures that people have placed words over to make the pictures funny. The younger generations seem to use these to communicate and make each other laugh. I am still learning how to use them, and Maddie tells me A. I am not very funny B. I do not know how to use them properly. C. Please stop. Well, I find them easy to make, and kind of amusing, so I have taken up making them in my spare time. Sometimes I use them on Facebook, or post them on Imgur. Other times I just send them to Maddie to make her smile. The picture above is actually a meme. I took a picture from Monty Python's Flying Circus and added a well known saying from the show. I place it at the top of my post, because this is a subject that I usually don't write about. Those who have watched Monty Python, might see it and get it. Others, not so much. But I digress! Below are pictures of some of my memes and I will try to explain how I used them. The first example is likely one of my better uses. I used it in a message with Maddie on Facebook Messenger. The conversation started normal enough. Maddie: Hey Dad, I have a question. Dad: Maddie: Can I go over to Seth's..? I'd be able to get a ride back and at this rate it may be easier since it's later. I don't think grandma would have a problem dropping me off. Dad: No. Maddie: Aw, Why? :( Dad: Maddie: I know Well bring you some back XD Maddie: Well? Dad: Maddie: Yes way.... But why can't I? Dad: (At this point, I was only playing with her. The real conversation ended with no. We both knew it. Now I was just practicing making memes quickly and trying to stay on topic. But she kept trying none the less.) Maddie: But it makes more sense and it'd save time XD Maddie: So why not? Dad: Maddie: Dad :) :) :) Dad: Maddie: Oh my God! I get it. :) :) :) Dad: Maddie actually liked this exchange and was laughing about it. It is now one in the morning, so I will just place a few more for you to look at. If you like them, I can always do an occasional post on the topic, or just add one in occasionally. Below are a few that I add in when someone makes a silly comment. I think you will be able to figure out the gyst of the comments from the memes. Well, that's it for now. If you like them, let me know... I have tons of them, and they are easy to make.
