DnD meme thread?

DnD meme thread?

That's an image macro, not a meme.

An image macro by definition could be a meme

>Be me
>joined a new DnD group out of curiosity
>DM gave me a creepy look, nonetheless everything else is normal
>have to start out where their old companion left off
>I make a Druid character
>ask DM for a description of the world around me
>everyones a loli.jpeg
>their last battle ended up with the BBEG's lesbian wife being murdered with tentacles

It could be, absolutely.

But that would require it becoming popular enough to be recognized as such.

What OP posted was not a meme.

Not OP, but
>he doesn't misappropriate terms to piss off pedants
>he doesn't subscribe to nonprescriptivist language paradigm
>his hovercraft isn't full of eels

The concept of funny image macros is a meme, you dip.

So you're saying that the content itself doesn't matter, and the fact that OP made the thread is itself the real meme?

I didn't say the content doesn't matter to the thread, but you're right that it doesn't matter to whether or not it's a meme.

Memes are a fucking overused term because it's vague as fuck. Literally any idea or concept that's transmitted from one person to another within a certain culture is a meme. Pretty much anything you post on the internet is a meme. That said, there's no need for pedantry when it's perfectly obvious what kind of thing the OP is talking about, especially since he already posted an example.

Am I memeing correctly?

>Be me
>DM
>Player's are in the astral sea trying to rebuild some portal thing
>Decide it would be helpful if they conquered all the city states as well
>Fly the giant ass pirate ship they stole(Pic related) to this black market Esque place
>Find a chain store
>Buy a shit ton of chain
>Send two party member back the to ship with the chain
>Other two climb onto the roof of the store
>The two PCs on the ship fly the ship over the chain store
>attach the chain to the ship and drop it down to the PCs at the store
>attach the other end to chain store
>get back on the ship
>Fly away with the store
>Fly to one of the city states
>swing the store into the castle there
>Send pirate minions down to conquer
>find a new store in their new city
>rinse and repeat

I don't get what the chain is meant to be for.

They took the store with the chain

Yes but why?

So they could use the store as a wrecking ball to swing into the castle

Listen man this was a couple years ago in a kinda silly campaign not all of it will make sense

Because an entire building can easily be picked up and carried through the air without collapsing.

No one learned to shoot down the ship

>Be le me
>Be playing le DnD
>Roll le d20

>Everything becomes leddit

I was a pretty new DM when this happened so I wasn't thinking it through that much, I just kinda went along with it

Top anime name?

Boku of the Pico Wars

Record of Lodoss War

IIRC both of these were based on RePlays. Meaning that both are how DnD actually ends up, just with different groups.

Record of Lodoss War.

>Top anime name?
Senpai.

But... PCs lording their might over level 0 npc peasants is a meme.

>Argument about what memes are

Memetics is any ideas, behaviors, etc. that can be transferred around from person to person. Memes are anything you can communicate to someone else that they will have some kind of mental reference of that makes it relatable.

Image macros are commonly used as memes because anyone who has seen it before will recognize the context of what is being conveyed.

In order to have a "DnD memes thread," you would need to post things that other Dungeons and Dragons players will be able to easily identify with. While OP's own choice of image isn't necessarily something quickly recognizable, players of the game or watchers of the show will be able to catch an understanding from it. It's fine.
