Used to be a bit witty in the beginning...like 2008, but now 90% of all are used by Trumpers. Not Republicans per say. Just Trumpers.

So, why do some people (Trumpers) like memes and gifs so much?

Serious sociological question. I know the answer, but would be interested to hear ideas as to why. It’s obviously a fact. So, it’s not a matter of if...just why.

People that usually suck at doing something, don’t like it. Sorry you suck

@atlkvb is so corny with his memes it gives me douche chills

So here's an example to me of a funny meme....

Hey @Bucktown Brown ....tell us what "moderate" immigration policy promised by Joe Biden do you want to see first? Immediate amnesty for all illegals, or immediate cessation of all ICE actions along our southern border?

Pretty straightforward since Biden has promised to pursue both and you voted for him because he's a "moderate" correct?

Now you of course would never answer that, which tells me you're either uninformed about Biden's "moderation" or you're a complete BS artist about being "moderate" and you're likely more radical than he is! So rather than curse at you, or call you names....or disparage your uninformed vote, I simply post a meme of you running away from that question faster than I can get out my stop watch!

It's funny...and effective...and also embarrass you for your refusal or inability to defend what you actually voted for:

@Bucktown Brown making fast tracks away from atl's question

See how funny that is?

There's better ways to insult people. Heck, easier to manipulate posters than anything on here.

This board has gone soft...

Now see. This wasn't too bad. The only issue though is your post reflects everyone on this politics message board with their narcissistic point of view. Damn right I am always right!!!!

I know him IRL...

I also don't care too much about which side a person falls in with Dems/Repubs. People from the get go have their opinions while others will take every opportunity to trounce it. Rinse and repeat...

I like most of ya Repubs... Only a handful needs to be ***** slapped around.

After what's happened in the last 4 years and the senate runoff, you have to have humor. I'm disappointed for future generations but I'm about to retire and cut my income and my matching SS taxes to our govt. I'm just down because there's nothing to stop the dems from ruining this country

Not only that, my oldest son passed away on the 28th. Been a tough holiday season. John was 47 and was a troubled soul. OD's after being clean for 2.5 years. Probably the stress of his aunt passing and getting ready to come up for her service.

Still working, 4 days like always. My two kids from my second family are still in college. I think I'll try and pull the plug 2022 in the spring or summer. Emily will have one year left

They don’t piss me off. I just find those who rely on it as pathetic. You’re pathetic for other reasons.
Ah how cute. You trying to convince yourself people give a **** about your opinion.

You started the thread because memes make your ****** bleed.

Wow... so sorry to hear that. No parent wants to go through that. It's my nightmare to have something like that happen. Thoughts are with you.
