Merelymatt - Merely Matt

finally a task where the bisexuals can really shine

I'm at season 4 in my current Magnus replay and these are all excellent and accurate

Jon in season 4 gives up all pretenses of trying to work on archiving and starts to make shitty memes of his past experiences as one

[ID: A collection of in-universe TMA memes.

1. An anime man labeled “Me (Jonathan Sims)” gestures to a butterfly labeled “Recording statements” while smiling naively. He asks: “Is this archiving? (Genuinely asking).”

2. Kermit, labeled “past me (Jonathan Sims)” looks at a hooded evil Kermit labeled “current me (Jonathan Sims) who says, "Don’t accept the promotion, for the love of god.”

3. A meme of rapper Xzibit smiling at the viewer with the top and bottom text: “Hello dog, I heard you like horror, / so we put horror statements in your already horror filled job so you can be scared while you are already scared.”

4. A doge meme. Doge smiles and is labeled with the rainbow words “Tea,” “So nice,” “Very fluffy,” “Martin blackwood,” and “Great assistant.”

5. Two pieces of paper labeled “Sasha” and “Not Sasha” are presented with the caption “Corporate needs you to find the difference between this picture and this picture.” The next panel shows Pam Beesly, labeled as “I’m sad (Jonathan Sims)” smiling and saying: “They’re the same picture.”

6. The old fist bump baby meme with a radial background. Top and bottom text reads: “I saw / Martin Blackwood today (It was from far away but it was still something).”

7. The “they don’t know” meme, which shows simplistically drawn people dancing in a room as a neutral-faced man wearing a party hat stands apart from them in the corner. The man is labeled “Me (Jonathan Sims)” and says: “They don’t know what’s happening here,” and the dancers are labeled “The rest of the Institute.”

8. A rage comic of a wrinkled face smiling with strain against a dark background. Top and bottom text reads: “This one is called forever alone. I feel as though this is very apt to my (and Martin’s) situation.”

9. A kid fist-pumping in front of a computer with the Impact text “When a statement records digitally.”

10. A picture of commentator Steven Crowder sitting at a table in a park. A sign taped to the front of the table is edited to read: “The Admiral is the best cat / Change my mind.” End ID]

He might know what a meme is but he's so bad at it

You are afraid / That you're a pizza boy

Bits of this song were written by a human

and other bits are nonsense generated by a neural network trained on

400,000 4chan comments

The Collected Sayings of Confucius

and I can't tell which bits are which because it's Everything Everything and their songs have ALWAYS lowkey sounded like the lyrics got dragged backwards through google translate

which makes them absolutely the right band to pull off a neural network lyric writing/collaboration experiment like this! I can't think of another band where the neural net lyrics wouldn't stand out like a sore thumb

Today I've watched Everything Everywhere All At Once and the Starstruck Odyssey finale, which means it's been an unexpected banner day for things shaped like butt plugs

Every turn before this one, I've been the first to go - so this was the first time I got to experience the fun of riffing off events someone else created, deciding how much to agree with and how much my account should conflict. You can do that all the time, riffing off things from previous turns, but this is the most engaged I've felt with that aspect of the game, and let me tell you, it's a blast

Is there anything Malcom won't complain about?

Another take on Plategate and we're no closer to knowing who chucked that first mug. And why on earth can't Malcolm just take the W when it lands on his ... plate? Just enjoy the pool, you big killjoy!
