      Ah yes Vine, definitely a relevant thing in 2023 that everyone references. Thanks for reminding me that Vine existed, I had actually forgotten.

        Some Vines are so deeply embedded in my memory that I’m sure I’ll still be able to quote them even after the dementia has destroyed my ability to recognize my loved ones.

        In hospice, surrounded by grieving loved ones saying their last goodbyes, the nurse watching on as I’m drifting away confused and irritable, doing their best to ensure my passing is as comfortable as possible, with my last breath I’ll mutter “road work ahead? Yeah I sure hope it does”…

          Meanwhile most of the world never went on Vine, and its been gone for 6 years now.

          Titling a post with basically “no homo” makes the majority of people go “huh why are they being casually homophobic” not “oh wow they are in a pool, so that’s like that one Vine from 6+ years ago!”.

          But by all means join the lineup of people spamming vine quotes at me as if I knew or cared what they mean lol.

            If you’re complaining someone made a reference you didn’t understand it’s time to take a break from the Internet

              I was never at any point complaining, but sure you guys dogpile on me for not understanding your trash from the 2010s, sorry for not having an encyclopedic knowledge of every meme from the last decade lmao.

              Y’all mofuckas need a better hobby than ganging on someone for not knowing some random reference.

                  lmao I made a flippant comment and then got dogpiled by 20 people screaming at me over it, literally everything I have said has been on the back foot as I am pummeled by people mocking me and being angry because I dared not to care about Vine and didn’t recognize some dumb homophobic sounding reference.

                  But no I am the one that cares so much, not the people spamming all my comments and sending me angry DM because I dared to besmirch the name of a dead website.

            You can choose to ignore things you don’t understand on Lemmy. I don’t go into the Risa posts because I know they’re not for me. If something doesn’t make sense and you want to ask about it, go for it, but don’t get upset when the explanation isn’t one that makes sense to you. For a lot of people, popular Vines were everywhere for a while. Not everything on the internet is for you.

            I was never on Vine, and I know what these things are because I’ve been on the Internet for the last few years. No offense, but this is an Internet place too.

              A 6+ year old meme from a website frequented by teenagers, which has been closed for 6 years?

              You have a strange idea of what “the loop” is.

                And you have no idea, keep up.

                Just say “all the time” if your memory is that bad mate.

                  Holy shit stop, this is fucking insane how angry and pushy you gang of idiots are.

                  Find a better hobby than harassing randoms for not knowing what some homophobic reference from a dead website is.

                    I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone beg this hard to be “dogpiled” while begging to not be “dogpiled”. Lol

                    Just stop replying.

                    It’s literally 30 seconds out my day, if it’s that hard to take, I think it’s pretty obvious it’s your issue here.

                    But by all means, keep everyone who’s shit on you in this thread, carry them round in your head, eating away at your psyche.

                    Jfc recognise when to bow out you clown lol.
