Is that like a Harlem Shake?
No, but the reaction sometimes is.

Flag would get used a lot more if it was a banana button. Kind of serious about that.

In all my years of reading BBS, I canāt say Iāve ever seen anyone use the exact same meme or animated GIF image as a complete reply, over and over, in multiple topics, many times per week. I know, because I would have complained about it.
I have been part of communities where they did start to do this kind of stuff, every time opinion (x) was trotted out, generic copypasta image (y) was pasted in. That was cool, that was accepted, thatās how they began to communicate. Or not communicate, as the case may be.
Spoiler: it didnāt end well.
(Iām all for variations on a theme, though. Totally support that.)
I canāt say that, either. I see it once a week, maybe. If that. And then itās always nice to see an old friend.
But those @#$@#$! emoji - I see those a$$#@!%s all over the place.
Ugh.

Banana seems to imply some kind of rewarding rather than castigating action. Iād associate ābananaā with ālikeā - and I donāt even like bananas.

Am I the only person who has noticed that Cumberbonce has clearly stolen Nicholas Cageās hair in this shot?
Sorry, I couldnāt find a gif version. Only the blowy wind one.

But isnāt it a logical fallacy to assume that just because something happened on another BBS, the same outcome would occur here?

I find the slurping GIF to be the equivalent of brown M&Ms. If I see it I should not read the thread, it will only make me angry.

Nice analogy!
Itās a community service: we should be thanking @Mindysan33, not complaining.

What if I posted nothing but Jon Snow/Kit Harrington gifs? Or just Game of Throne gifs? Would that also be a party foul? Would I be singled out then, as well?
Why am I asking questions hereā¦ I wonāt be donaldāed here.
