The most recent being the jeans trend. It was funny, I get why everyone enjoys a good shitpost. Some of the shitpost are top quality and fun for all to enjoy. But after a couple of days the shitposts just turn to shit posts and its just upvote farming low quality content and kills the joke.
Everyone gets tired of it at a different time. Someone found out about it just now and they are enjoying it just as much as you did the first time.
(this is the second post I see about jeans, I assume I am too “blocking c/*memes” to understand)
I can agree with that point. People might be late to the joke, or enjoy it for a longer time. But the quality of posts is also important, and I think that’s the where the difference comes in. Someone takes the time to think of a good pun, or a high quality photo shop, I can appreciate that even if I don’t fine the joke funny anymore. When the post is jeans jeans and it’s a drawing done in 5 seconds in paint of 2 pairs of poorly draw jeans it’s not funny and just upvote farming, whether you just discovered the joke or not. That’s my take anyway, I know we won’t all agree.
Shitposts aren’t supposed to be high quality. It’s in the name
They still should reach the bar of “not garbage” though.
Well that’s up to the audience to decide
My nephews just started saying YEET and other mid-2010s “slang” all the time. I don’t insult them for it (they are both under 10) but damn it gets annoying. I’m sure I did the same thing as a kid.
Shitpost trends that never die seen a lot more like that to me. Kids get a pass because they’re too young to have their own thing but seeing teenagers and adults continue it…I wish they’d get new material.
