    usually i think it’s cringe when people shit on the linguistics of memes, but this is the most non-pov “pov” post i’ve ever seen. the meaning would be the EXACT same if they just hadn’t included the dumbass “pov:” part. fucking spotify marketing intern ass buzzword

        That’s… what a photo is. While technically correct, no one would use “Photo:” as a meme format. It’s just redundant and dumb.

          Are we really using redundancy and dumbness as a point against a meme format?

          "When you

          When you shit your pants"

          Is literally an old meme format where repeating the top line is part of the joke.

          Plus there’s “BOTTOM TEXT” which is just completely stupid but funny.

          We must be seeing different memes.
