Strawbaerry Jay @strawbaerry-jay-relocated - Tumblr Blog

OKay, a good bit of time back I made a new Tumblr and formally invite everyone to go follow me on it if they please.

It’s nishinoyas-thighs.tumblr.com .

I’ve told asked my irl friends not to follow me and I really hope they follow my wishes. If not, oh well. Just thought i’d let you all know. I’m fairly active on there. It’s mostly Haikyuu right now so- yeah.

So, I made a new Tumblr. I may come back to this one, but it isn’t the plan. I’m already following some of my mutuals on my other account and plan to message them when I can.

So, laters.

ok from what i can tell there have only been like 4 moderately widespread memes on this site in the past month or so (1. pokemon go meme 2. taylor swift copyright meme 3. “you gotta” 4. halsey lyrics on spongebob caps) which others have noted is a remarkably reduced rate of meme production for this trash site.

while i think the fact that the majority of tumblr’s user base has gone back to school definitely contributes to The Great Meme Depression of 2015 (TGMD 2k15), it cannot be the only explanation. if it was we would see the same Meme Stagnation every year around the same time, which has not been the case. september 2014 gave us unavoidable site-wide phenomena such as madden gifferator, “what’s better than this? guys being dudes,” the rebirth of loss.jpg, steal her look, what are we?, etc.

i propose that the rapid rate of meme production we grew accustomed to in 2014 and early 2015 deflated the staying power of individual memes. our hyper-awareness of memes and the fact that our metatextual analysis of said memes became a meme within itself (”memeology”) conditioned us into constant vigilance in our search for “the next meme.” i mean, for fuck’s sake, the first meme of 2014 was “what’s going to be the first meme of 2014?” and the last meme of 2014 was “is this the last meme of 2014?” with garbage pseudo-intellectual meta we sowed the seeds of our own destruction.

deflation of individual meme value led to an even more dramatic increase in meme production (for evidence, just look at how many memes the blog memedocumentation has explained. and of course, those are only 2015 memes. the fact that memedocumentation does not document pre-2015 memes is another fucking 2015 meme) this lead to an even heavier reliance on what could be referred to as Meme Credit–we were borrowing and resurrecting old memes like pepe and the aforementioned loss.jpg to satisfy the Meme Demand in the absence of concrete, original memes. we were destined to crash when that credit ran out and the vaults of the Meme Banks were emptied.

even now as i reflect on how meme hyper-vigilance and overproduction has destroyed the meme economy, i cannot help but wonder “but what will be the next meme?”

only some kind of……….new deal………a New Meme Deal, if u will, can save us from this Great Meme Depression. in its absence we shall continue to suffer.

You forgot the losing people on the dance floor and calling random crap to find them.

ok im getting a lot of replies about memes that i “forgot” so i want to clarify that when i talk about “september memes” i don’t mean memes that continued into september or remained popular in september. i mean memes that originated during the past 30 days.

“losing [x] in a crowd” meme started in early/mid august 2015.

the “miley what’s good” meme started on the night of the VMAS, August 30, and continued into september. but it is still technically not a meme that originated in the last 30 days. likewise “why the fuck you lyin” started with a vine uploaded on august 29.

JOHN CENA meme is hella old. like that shit first started in 2012 or something. but it’s resurgence on tumblr started in late july of this year.
