Old fags remember rule: don't share memes with normies, it will kill a meme.

Please, watch out for context.

In 4chan there's context to interpret your usage of "old fag" as "site veteran". But we are not in 4chan - here it's simply a slur targetting a marginalised group of people.

For context, "fag" is used as a form of endearment on 4Chan, instead of a slur. It's not meant to be hateful in this context.

I thought everything about 4chan was meant to be hateful.

Seriously, after the whole Pizzagate thing, that site became such a shitshow I never went back.
