My guy, ‘the generic line adds much less than the specific one’ is not some kind of contradiction.
And that generic line gets slapped on anything, as if it’s just… how images do. It’s objectionable specifically because it’s essentially useless.Unlike the other line, which would simply not make sense in most other contexts.
This is not worth the wall of text. It’s really not complicated.

How much it’s adding is really a subjective judgment and not relevant to the discussion. The fact is both lines add something in terms of context. However this context has no value for the purpose of delivering content.

Right, the line is more specific. Why is it worth appending a specific line of text before content? Isn’t that also just a case of ‘how images do’?
This is not worth the wall of text. It’s really not complicated.
Right so let’s remove all of the text before the content. I’m glad we agree. This is not some gacha argument. I am legitimately saying we do not need this meme as a delivery mechanism for content. Just the image on its own is sufficient. edit: typo
I don’t get it. Your argument says we don’t need a wall of text. What else could that mean? It does seem like we agree.
As far as the ‘nobody:’ line, generic doesn’t mean it has no meaning. It means it can have different meaning based on the context.
More broadly, if you like the meme, because it’s fun, put it in front of content. If you don’t, remove it. Or pick and choose what you want. Subjective fun seems like a reasonable argument on why to keep parts of a meme.
I don’t see why a selectively applied utilitarian argument would be compelling. Seems like we would want to remove all fluff.
Your wall of text. Your long-ass litigation of two sentence fragments, one of which is as functional as a watermark. Its meaning is negligible. Not zero - but close.
And for all your dogged insistence on understanding, you struggle to grasp why someone would want specific details without generic fluff, unless they wanted absolutely nothing added. Like you can’t conceive of a value between all and none.
And you can’t stop hassling me about it like it’s my fault.
Yeah, I thought about it some more, and that’s what I realized you were talking about. My bad.

No I cannot. Which is why I asked multiple times. If there is such as reason, please share it with me. What is so great about specific details? As far as I can tell, it seems like a personal preference.
And you can’t stop hassling me about it like it’s my fault.
Ok, my bad. I don’t want you to feel hassled. Sorry it came off that way.

‘No no no and here’s why.’
‘I’m glad we agree.’
Fuck off already.

Have a good one. =)
