#memeception

[dyslexic-asexual]

At the internet. Straight up "overusing it". And by "it", haha, well. Lets justr say. The lets justr say format

[librarianpirate]

average internet user boops 3 blogs a year" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person boops 0 blogs per year. Tumblr Georg, who lives on tumblr & boops over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

It's Memeception in Maya Glyph form!

Young Man

Take the breadsticks

and run

I said

young man

Man door hand hook car

gun

Yeah, I like old memes.

This follows up The Tiger Poem, and The Demon Stoplight Poem. Original is by @plaid-n-converse in 2016.

Literal translation:

you-take-it the-tamale¹ sir-youth (and) run-you

sir-youth said-I

the-man door hand

sir-youth said-I²

the-folded.over-dart³ canoe⁴ (blow)gun⁵

-

Transliteration:

ʔa-ch'am-Ø ʔu-waj ʔu-ch'ok a‧n-eet

ʔaj-ch'ok che‧ʔ-een

ʔu-wi‧nik pa‧sil k'ab

ʔaj-ch'ok che‧ʔ-een

ʔu-pak-jul ju‧kuub pu'w

-

Character Transliteration (ALL CAPS are characters that stand for full words, lower case are syllabic):

ʔa-ch'a-CH'AM-ma ʔu-wa-WAJ ʔAJ-ch'o[ko] ʔa-ne-ta

ʔAJ-ch'o-ko che-ʔe-na

ʔu-WINIK-ki pa-si-li K'AB

ʔAJ-ch'o[ko] che-ʔe-na

ʔu-pa-ka-ju-lu ju-ku-bi pu-wa

-

Notes:

¹ 'waj' is the term for any food made with maize dough. I've seen it translated as 'tamale' by linguists, but the term seems to refer to a general category similarly to 'bread'

² To allow the translation to match YMCA meter, I added an extra 'I said, "Young man"' (only 2 of the last 6 words are a single syllable in Classical Maya)

³ 'jul' is a dart/spear/any other piercing tool (but not a needle). I felt a 'folded over/bent downwards piercing tool' fit 'hook' okay

⁴ 'jukuub' is 'canoe', and the closest analog for 'car' I could find

⁵ 'pu'w' is the term for 'blowgun', and has extended it's meaning to 'shotgun' in quite a few modern Maya languages

Alpine Ibexes climb nearly 90 degree angles to boop on mountainsides. They grave that booping.

[math-is-magic]

"The sky is Blood Orange." It's fucking red. So pretentious.

if shes your girl then why have i slowly been replacing her parts until there’s nothing left of her original body? is she then still your girl?

[plaid-n-converse]

YOU. Legend. That I didn't realize until recently. And you're just casually my mutual.

I am but a humble potato here to make people look at things i find mildly funny 🤙

Ain’t That A Kick In The Head! by lesbianharrie, wreckingtomlinson

Length: 22k

“Well.” Niall unlocks his phone. “It wasn’t getting the traction I wanted on Snapchat. So…I tweeted it.”

What.

“You tweeted it,” Harry states, nearing a state of brain dead. “To your ten thousand followers.”

Niall nods, handing Harry the phone. “You’re a meme, Harry.”

“I’m a what?”

“A meme. It’s like an internet—”

“I know what a fucking meme is, Niall! Why did you make me into one?”

Niall has the fucking balls to cackle at that while Harry looks at the mess his former friend created. Videos of him screaming at Tomlinson about Tide Pods and his ass are being quoted and combined with memes to a create a level of memeception Harry has never seen before. That isn’t even including the thousands of tweets of him falling up the stairs remixed with random Top 40 songs.

~

In which Harry’s a disaster gay who doesn’t know shit about soccer, Liam drinks too many blue raspberry Coolattas, Niall knows everyone, Zayn looks dead, and Louis is Not Happy about sharing his breakout moment with “Drunk Hawaiian Guy.”

Here you go, love.
