It's the same thing, you know.
>GF was self contained
>PPGReboot is just shoving several dead old men's and slag and calling it new and improved
This bait sucks and so does your mom
the kids in GF were specifically referring to a joke on the internet.
PPG is taking a joke from the internet and having a character act it out.
memes require context to work in general, and just mentioning them isnt a joke. I know that last one is hard for you plebbitors to take in, but please try.
similarly these joke are about context, but not just that, its also terrible in PPGs because its a really fucking old meme, and one that was never funny.
The difference is that GF has at least one redeeming factor
>>81996092
no anon, her mom sucks good
>>81996050
The main difference is
>Bad joke in a generally funny series
>Bad joke in an awful series
On top of what was said already, GF was also smart enough to actually figure out what the original image and use that as a reference, while PPGreboot uses a completely unrelated reaction face.
It would only be comparable if he was doing the "Aliens" pose or something.
>brown shit vs green shit
there is a difference, brown shit is healthy
>>81996050
The first seems reasonable both with and without context. A bad joke, yes, but not distracting.
The second is weird. When did Bubbles learn Spanish?
What did they have Bubbles say? I don't even recognize that face as any identifiable meme. Is it something from reddit or tumblr?
Sharing a similarity with Pedofalls doesn't make it any better.
>>81996458
Rage comics
"Nope"
>>81996458
It's a rage face
>>81996451
>When did Bubbles learn Spanish?
Actually Bubbles speaking Spanish was a power she had in the original series.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6F0WEAEKe0
It still doesn't really excuse the above though.
>>81996494
>When did Bubbles learn Spanish?
Not just spanish, Bubbles could talk to ALL animals.
>>81996050
One is an old Internet meme, the latter is specifically leddit culture
>>81996484
>>81996483
Got it. The rage faces I can recognize are the ones they stole from /v/ circa 2011.
>>81996540
>One does not simply...
>old
Pick one. I'd argue it's more "tired" than anything.
Old would be shit that's 10+ years old like YTMND or Hampsterdance
>>81996092
>ITT: /co/ can't see beyond their own faggotry
Anyone who tries to defend the shitty forced memes in GF is literally cancer
>>81996712
It's at least that old, anon. People were making that joke walking out from the theatres seeing the Fellowship and it's been an Internet home since forever
>>81996510
her special power was basically being able to speak, read and understand all languages even animals ones.
There is also an episode where she is reading a manga in the original Japanese

Season 1 the good season.
>>81997140
2A is better, but 2B is definitely a disappointment
>>81997407
Agreed.
>>81996050
One requires a character to make a certain pose.
The other requires a character to suddenly grow a piece of anatomy they don't normally have.
>>81996712

Yeah, I remember that gif existing as far back as 2003 and it was indeed YTMND fodder.
>>81996050

Yep. Both are still bad jokes. Gravity Falls has some bad jokes now and then, that doesn't bring down it's overall quality.

>>81997745
slow down there /pol/
>>81996050
How did an SJW show like the new PPG get away with doing an anti-semetic caricature like that?
>>81997876
I don't think the macro existed then.
>>81997895
Those aren't memes, those are references. Unless you've been an ignorant little shit you would've seen the countless anime homages in cartoons of today.
We're talking about reddit faces and image macros. So far, yeah, SU hasn't had any of that.So far
>>81997895
>gitaroo man is a meme
Well, memes are part of our life and Gravity Falls showed what people would actually do when hearing a public figure saying something stupid - plastering it over his portrait for funniez.
I don't know in PPG, haven't seen, it seems like a pointless reference from this picture.
>>81996311
This exactly, that was a major misstep of behalf of GF, but one of tons of missteps on behalf of the PPG reboot.
>>81997995
"One does not simply X Y Z" started as an internet meme pretty much as soon as Fellowship came out, and became a macro in very early 2004, although using the picture without the caption was a thing before that. In a lot of ways, it was one of the very first things that people outside of 4chan would recognize as a meme in the modern sense.
In fact, LOTR in general was the spawn of a lot of the very first "memes" in that sense of the word.
>>81996368
Green shit either means you ate too much blue/green food dye (which isn't entirely UNhealthy) or your liver is failing.

>Alex is A HAAAAACK
K
You can argue that the Gravity Falls one is funny or unfunny, but it wasn't a meme used in lieu of a joke. The joke was old politicians desperately trying to appeal to young voters with tired memes.
>>81996050
yeah, it was a bad joke when gravity falls did it, too. but when GF does it, it's forgivable because the rest of the show is actually watchable.
>>81998282
No, not really. It's someone else who made a meme about Stan. It was basically a shout-out but at least not out of nowhere.
I really wish "muh secret meme" people shut up. Memes are public thing now.
>>81997626
It still doesn't have an original idea at all
>both have jews
Yeah, I can see your point
>>81997895
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W__p0gCBSZI
Oh boy what a meme!
>>81998609
Please stop memeing.
>>81997998
The anime and gitarro man parts could be just considered refs.
Sanic, however, isn't. If you wanted to make a reference to Sonic, you'd make a picture of the blue fucker himself or if it's subtle, just have a regular hedgehog and color it blue. There, clearly a "Sonic" reference. What >>81997784
posted would be pic related. Which is a meme.
>>81998717

>>82000537
>>82000608
Everyone don't like FNaF very much. Its whole existence for some people are "it's meme shit".
To me, it's more too much a standard reference by comparison to >>81996050, but, the point of >>81997626 makes his precious show seem perfectly without any of these kinds of things in general.
>>82000541
Nice edit
>>82000101
Video game and anime references aren't memes themselves. If thats the case then half of all Hannah Barbera cartoons have memes. Don't be stupid.
>4chan is allowed to have memes but everyone else is in the wrong for doing it
This double standard needs to die. Either we embrace memes like we used to do before 2012 or we shun them all together. That means pepe, wojack, baneposting and any others that I might be missing. None of this inbetween shit.
>>81996050
Aw, how nice, I think this is the same thing DC fans tried after BvS turned out shitty after more reviews started coming in. Instead of defending the show on it's own merits, since you know you already lost that game, now you're trying to point at something else and scream "NU-UH LOOK THIS SHOW ALSO MADE A BAD THING".
The difference is, one of these shows actually tried, wasn't full as shit of errors, had some actually funny stuff and some okay-ish plot. What does PPG have compared to GF, when we take both meme shits aside?
>>81996050
It's not. Gravity Falls was making fun of it, Powerpuff Girls was just shamelessly trying to use it unironically.
>>82000926
Hear hear. We risk sounding like the whiny hipster faggots we hate when we go on about NOT MUH MEMES.
>>82000926
>immensely popular
>adored by children and aspies on the internet, who constantly do weird shit about it
>became unpopular after a while
So what makes FNAF not a meme?
>>82000926
>modern cartoons don't have bane jokes
this is why they all suck
>>81997407
Season 2B basically undermined the entire show.
>>82001146
>A meme (/ˈmiːm/ meem) is "an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture". A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures.
FNAF is a standalone game that does not get passed on or changed. It always derives from a central source (the product) and while memes may be based on it the game itself can only be modified by the author.
>>81998083
God that .gif will never not be funny. It's right up there with the whole batman v superman .gif where he makes a joke about using an epileptic in a bath as a washing machine.

>>82000995
Yeah, Gravity Falls mentioned that Internet losers were pumping out memes during an election, which is pretty much what happens. In-universe it was people quickly churning out old stale memes which is pretty accurate (see reddit during every election). It wasn't just using it as a joke in and of itself.
>>82001347

It's more along the lines of content coming out of 4chan and being seemingly exploited or used too far out of context, or done to death and used up, rather than the idea that no one else can have memes.
People made legitimate money taking image macros from here and slapping them onto clothes and posters. That was never the intent of using them.
Plus, I think we're all a little cockshy since 9gag rose from the ashes of all the burned out memes. It's actually kind of sad to look at the state of that site. Bunch of brain dead shitposters maintaining some vague status quo.

>>81997626
It's like you only have reaction pics and haven't seen the show.
>even some reaction pics of the show include the memes
>>82004598
It does. In GF they mention that people are making bad memes, and show that picture as an example. The meme itself is more of a humorous reference to the actual meme, instead of trying to be a humorous variation.
In PPG, it's simply Bubbles randomly making that face and saying "no me gusta" just out of nowhere. She had no reason to meme, and it was set to be actually funny. That's probably what hurts the most about it, that they wrote this is, made it happen, and patted themselves on the back for bringing laughter into the heart of children with this fresh denk maymay that kids love so much.
>>81997626

>>82005471
It won't

That's a horrible way of steering it. I like SU, but /co/ mostly hates it, so it might as well be human shit walking into a saloon, bragging that it isn't horse shit or cow shit like these other turds 'round these here parts.
Though steering the conversation towards what shows do and don't have memes might make something of this thread.
>>82005531
>Though steering the conversation towards what shows do and don't have memes might make something of this thread
Posting SU is the only way to get peoples attention in PPG threads, it redirects their hatred slightly so we get a tiny bit of actual discussion
I don't really care about memes but I am so sick of /co/ crying about them
>>82005372
>post some
are you blind?
They had shorts of Steven doing a god damn unboxing video, a "LION LIKES GETTING IN BOXES :)" video, Sanic, all those fucking anime "references" that basically correlate to anime memes, plus the other things people have posted.
So far it's done more memes than PPG, but give it time.
>>82005616
I don't think unboxing videos are memes.
And usually anime references are allusions, not memes.
Because not everything is a meme. But they did do Sanic, yeah.

Gravity Falls was always shit. I'm convinced only pedos stuck with that show for long. I got sick of every episode being Dipper obsessing over Wendy and Mabel being obnoxious. I came for supernatural/paranormal/folklore stories, not ever episode being about some faggot kids crush.
PPG was actually a great show that is being shit all over by the new series.
Huge difference.
>>82008184
Completely agreed anon, Gravity Falls had so much wasted potential. It's a real shame that it was so mediocre

>>82008184
I was surprised by how many people on 4chan loved it and swore up and down it wasn't because pedo.
The story was shit, the creator couldn't hold his own for 1 month, and the worst part was the characters you HAD to put up with the whole time to actually watch it. We were actually supposed to feel sad for Mabel all those times she whined and complained, we were supposed to be pissed at Dipper in that one episode where everyone fucked him over, the rest were just annoying one-note characters. The only character who had real depth was Stan and that's just because he was trying to get his brother back.

>>82008184
I really wanted to like it but it was just so fucking boring. Not as boring as the bear cartoon on CN but it was it's own kind of boring. In that it promised story but put it on a backseat for the sake of "muh characters" that alex couldn't even get right for once.
I mean, I wasn't expecting anime levels of story, but when your first episode is starting the series plot but also having a "le boyfriend scenario" it's bad.

>>82002652
By most accounts, it was drawn in by the storyboarders for a quick laugh. I think it didn't piss off many people because it goes by fast, there isn't much attention drawn to it, it makes sense in the scene (Steven owns a weird toy), and Sanic, as a joke, hasn't been run through the wringer as badly as rage faces - especially since that episode came out in 2013.

They were both shit. At least in GF you can make the excuse that they were making fun of the memetastic kids who make shit like that given the contextand that Alex used to browse 4chan to some extenteven if that's not the actual joke they intended. Still, that's only one shit joke in an overall good series. The Mabel lolcat photoshoot shit was fine because it actually seems 100% like something she'd actually do. Sort of like when kids first get internet or first go to 4chan they try too hard and use a bunch of ancient memes like over 9000 or something.
