kiramanell Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 (edited) @IvyLarae Good, honest post. But I'm not sure LL will appreciate posting the personal IM's and such. (Hence I didn't quote it). Your call. You're standing up for something, though, and that's a good thing. ❤️ P.S. In general, about not being liked, when someone feels everyone is against them... why, reminds me of that joke: A man is driving down the highway, turns on his radio, and hears a bulletin about someone going the wrong way on the very same road he's on. So, he turns down his window, looks outside, and says: "Hmm, I think it's more than just one." 😜 Okay, I probably told it wrong, LOL, but the morale of the story is, when it feels like everyone is on a collision course with you, then maybe consider that it's really YOU who's going the wrong way.

"Y’all really finna pick a fight out of no where" roughly translates to, "You people are trying to cause trouble for no reason." Now I'm off to have a cup of char. You're a godsend Amina thanks! Seems it's "a black thing" so kinda figures. Edit: Btw....it's always been "arse upwards" for us in Manchester, never said "backwards". That was always "arse about face" meaning "turn around", from the military 'drill' shout "Abarrrrttttt.......FACE!" (just to confuse things further lol).

So you have just paid a great compliment to Seicher... I thought somethings she needed to defend herself over, but when she says she is being targeted and discriminated agaisnt but then calls out people over Age & Race thats disappointing. I want nothing to do with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seicher Rae Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Oh no! Not the misquoting, or quoting things that never were said, or the stealth edits! Oh the horror. But nothing, nothing compares with the sarcasm laughing face response! It is too much. Too much! (Except thank you for the all important reputation point for giving me a 😄 ) smh I sure wish everyone would stop lying about blocking the entire forum, or half of us, or 8.6 of us.

Knowyourmeme.com is a great place btw: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/karen That's what I've learned today ! (All the people named Karen who I've ever met have been easy-going and charming. It didn't sound like an insult when I saw it used on the thread, just an over-familiarity.) Edited May 9, 2020 by Marigold Devin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seicher Rae Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Just now, kali Wylder said: So people think boomers complain a lot? It is related to, although not quite the same as #OKBoomer. It is a dismissive put down, with or without cause. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seicher Rae Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 #OKBoomer actually started out as a hilarious and fitting response to "old" folks who were being DISMISSIVE of younger people, especially millennials. However, things morph rapidly on the Internet. It changed from being a deserved response, akin to an eye roll, into a basic diss, with definite ageist bias. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kali Wylder Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 too stoned to type think coherently.... talk amongst yourselves, I am woefully ignorant about current popular culture.... come to think of it, I wasn't ever any good about any of popular culture references since the early 60s. But I do know some obscure details about some odd things. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivy Mysterious Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 I used to LOVE the #okboomer memes,because as a millennial,i had heard it all so it was nice to see it thrown back at them in a way,but now its got more venom to it which sucks 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now, anytime I see/hear someone say 'OK Boomer', they immediately go on my list of folks that I have very little respect for. Anyone using the Karen diss is also on that list. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
