Memes I Missed 23: More Metal Memes
I know I just did a “going through my C://users/Isley/desktop/organize/RANDOM/desktop_stuff_to_organize folder and posting a bunch of random memes I found” post, but I had a few more memes of a heavy kind. As usual, these are mostly deep cuts of dubious quality, but for those of you who always pop at my very specific use…
Read MoreMemes I Missed 22: Memes I Made
I don’t make a lot of memes, but from time to time I find myself jumping on photoshop and whipping up some stupid shit. Usually it’s initiated by some half-baked idea that will, at best, provide a mild chuckle after I explain all the narrow references needed to fully understand it. Then, after sending it…
Read MoreMemes I Missed 21: Memeing my Family
If you have kids, you’ll end up with a lot of pictures of those kids. 95% will need to be deleted whenever you get around to finally sorting through the 20,000 pictures on your phone, 4% will be adorable, and 1% will be meme material. Over the years, I’ve made quite a few random memes,…
Read MoreMemes I Missed 20: Smudge the Cat Trolls Sensitive Underground Metal Fans
I’m a little further behind the times with this post than usual on the whole “woman yells at a cat” thing, but a while back I made a bunch of metal related variations, and today I’ve finally cobbled them together into a post. I haven’t seen one of these for a while, but, for my…

Today we will look at one of the most powerful tools in your troll arsenal–reductio ad absurdum, ie, reducing someone’s argument to an absurd position. Reductio ad absurdum is an argument technique that basically says “if you believe X, then this totally absurd thing Y would logically follow, so, stop believing X.” This doesn’t necessarily…

You know how, sometimes, on April Fool’s Day, some asshole will come up to you and go: “Guess what, I had oatmeal this morning!” You respond with “oh, cool” (or, a “whatever” followed by a jerk-off hand motion if you’ve had it with their breakfast stories) only to be met with: “APRIL FOOL’S!!!! YOU IDIOT,…
Read MoreMemes I Missed 19: Underground Metal Memes 2
While cleaning up my computer desktop recently (ok, fine, I was just doing my usual: drag and dropping everything into an “other” folder) I came across a few random metal memes that I made for random metal reasons over the last year. Add in a couple of YouTube videos that I never ended up posting…
Read MoreMemes I Missed 18: American Chopper Argument
As I’ve said before, this feature is named Memes I Missed due to the fact that by the time a meme is popular enough to be featured on here, pretty much everyone will agree that it also happens to be totally tired and played out. Today’s meme, the American Chopper Argument, is no exception. …
Read MoreMemes I Missed 17: Object Labeling with Classic Film Screenshots
I don’t care how hip to the ways of the youths you might be, it’s almost impossible to catch a meme on the uptick. No matter how quickly you jump on a new meme, you’ll have some asshole on your social media being all “man, I saw that shit like 6 months ago.” Thus, for…
Read MoreUnderground Black Metal Memes
Memes are basically just in-jokes, references that people can feel special for “getting” as they endlessly scroll through Reddit in an attempt to fill the void in their soul.
