I have no idea who the person is or what the context of the photo was, but just the cat + box part tells me all I need to know.

Holy shit yeah having context makes it way different
Ha, I only knew the whispered line, never saw the conplete sketch. Brilliant.

Good human.
Thanks I try to remember but this one slipped by
We’re all better together
It's free real estate.

JIM COME GET YOUR DAMN LAND
THE HOUSE IS FREE!!
The fact that the reply used "hieroglyphics" and cats have been pulling this shit longer ago than those were used as written language... And said poster's argument was that "someday" that wouldn't be the case?
Have they met a fucking cat?!
pretty sure it's about the subtitles of the meme missing (it's free real estate)
I guess that would make knowyourmeme the modern Rosetta Stone
perhaps, but it will be indecipherable due to the 42gb of advertisements and pop-ups it loads.
ublock origin is going to be seen as a hero-like figure
It's not already?
Or the death of the Internet when 100% of people use ad blockers.
Or maybe websites can go back to simple ads that just have a picture with a link. Modern advertising is about harvesting your data, which is why I use an ad blocker. They also use a ton of resources that slow down websites.
We can't close pandora's box. Google ads are extremely profitable, nothing else comes close. I work for a company that uses ads as the main revenue source. We tried to avoid Google but it just makes no business sense. We're talking 10 times the revenue compared to other major players. Google not only pays better, but the ads are just better.
I'm very pessimistic. I'm pretty sure we're heading in the direction where most websites will be DRM'd and impossible to block ads.
If I become rich I will download the entirety of knowyourmeme and engrave it on a giant block of granite or carve it into the side of a mountain. Our descendants will thank me.
There's gonna be that one academic weirdo in 1000 years who's focus is "Memes and Internet History of the 21st Century".
I'd bet money there are already ~~thesises(??)~~ theses (thanks, atomicorange!) and dissertations on this.
There's def already stuff like interpreting use of emojis. For example sometimes you have text messages show up in a court case and there are people who can officially "interpret" what the emojis mean for the court.
At least some portion of that have to be grifters
An accurate statement to append to literally all human effort.
Theses is the plural of thesis. Kinda looks stupid out of context but there you go.
And the Ship of Theses is when you rewrite the seven parts of your dissertation so many times that you're not sure if it's even your original intent anymore
