is anyone else having trouble being funny because the memes have been erased from search engines etc?

only on some articles and tweets i find them on

for me it seems anything vaguely political

i haven't looked into an alternate browser/search engine yet though

yeah

googling memes is often unhelpful

helps to know the unofficial name of the meme

watching new southpark ....cartman swats klye with ICE

Showed a video of Billy Gilman vs Billie Eilish to my 14 year old daughter. Trying very hard to open her eyes. But know i rolled my eyes at her age when people told me the satanic influence in rock. It's so fucking out there now it's unreal.

Here's Billy Gilman song I played for my elementary students https://youtu.be/-NlT-ELVWk0

Now here's fucking Billie Eilish

https://youtu.be/-PZsSWwc9xA

My daughter even said daaannng Big deal haha

it's hard to see those influences without knowing about all the rest of it

especially when it comes to the symbolism, it is one of the more obscure aspects of it all

@Maga gal once again i would just explain to your daughter that billie eilish really sucks. Play some pearl jam for her. Very neutral and non satanic

depending on the age you might want to try an inverse approach 😛

pretend to really like the bands she likes and try to share your fandom with her 😛

davey that only works if the kids already want to avoid u like the plague

yeah that's what i was thinking

that time when literally everything your parents do is lame

my siblings kids loved me...except during rubber band fights

shes unlistenable i couldnt even pretend to like her

if i tried my hardest

i played games with them, helped them with their homework, tutored them on things ...even helped them with music and understanding it

rebelling is part off growing up

i owned all the video game systems at the time....so they needed me to play them

i had multi player games and rpg's

for the consoles...

this was pre internet

i have all that stuff again on emulators and raspberry pi

well ya...now

its cool to go back n play them again

only 1 sibling's house had a console..it was a nes....i had snes, tg16, genesis to name a few

neogeo?

no

had sega cd tho

neogeo was da shiznit

🎵 DAYTONAAAAAAA🎵

neogeo costs too dam much at the time...i could sell all my consoles for new prices and still couldn't afford the neogeo at the time

price only got worse since then
