  • /r/dankmemes is the meme equivalent of a girl saying "netflix and travel" makes her 'quirky and fun'
  • @zacheray
    Yep that's the level of problem-solving skill i expected from reddit
  • @papayer
    The fact they would want to claim these shitty memes as their own intellectual property in the first place is way funnier than memes themselves
  • @RichardWelsby
    What a glorious tale. It has everything a good story should have: -Intrigue -Drama -Watermarks
  • To quote a meme from the Ifunny featured, “1990: The Internet was made up of a million websites made by millions of people. 2019: The Internet consists of 4 websites, each made up of screenshots from the other 3”

    It's so sad that we've come to a point where memes; a thing that is supposedly naturally passed around, is being fought over by people who value them too much.
  • The fact that 4chan know offensive memes can never get stolen by reddit or instagram, because users would get punished, is a 200iq move.
  • @ForeverLaxx
    I will never get sick of Reddit getting mad that people are stealing "their" content when their entire site stole most of their stuff from 4chan. When their version of /x/ was closed down for people stealing "their" creepy pastas, I laughed out loud.

    the funny thing is, the water mark thing would have worked if reddit wasn't such a fucking hive mind. the removers only worked because they were all using the exact same image, so you could just subtract it out.
  • @o7.
    The funny part is that r/dankmemes is no longer dank
  • @harryb7505
    The most original memes posted on Reddit were the ones complaining about Reddit memes being stolen
  • @flatP_
    the saddest part of this is that people think their top text bottom text funnypost that’ll die within a week is important enough
  • @mouadchaiabi
    4:45 "but this idea failed too. The seizures were just not worth it." I am dying.
  • @Cyranek
    I infect my memes with lethal diseases to prevent theft.
  • And now YouTubers are returning the favour by reading out reddit/Instagram/fb posts in Microsoft robotic voice... $$$$$$
  • @broderick9381
    “Scientists at the... science lab-“ is still my favorite quote from his channel.
