Anakin and Padmé meme: So we're going to fine them that amount, or force them to refund it to their customers, right?

Right?

Consequences!!?? No, we're just telling you about this shit we found.

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago (2 children)

To be pedantic, in the meme format (as in the original movie), Padmé asks the same question twice. The second question is not just "Right?" https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/for-the-better-right

I have altered the meme. Pray I don't alter it more.

Oh goodness, you're very good at getting my goat.

Luke to Darth Vader "Anakin I am your son!"

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Yes, that was part of the joke.

Memes are fair game in this wretched hive of scum and evilitude.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of memes suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

I'm not usually a stickler for adhering closely to meme "rules" but this one drives me batty. I never have the courage to correct folks though, so have your lemmy gold!

I'm honored! I'll never have mutton chops like Kilmister's, and I'll gladly accept this honorary form of them instead.

Why is Lemmy gold an undead pirate. Not that I have a problem with it

Bruh that's Lemmy Killmister from Motorhead.

[–] beebarfbadger@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

The question stands.

Ah, I'm not familiar. I couldn't name a single member of most bands that I like, and while I've surely heard them before, I couldn't name a single one of their songs.
