Okay,
so first of all, you guys are mad that we "took credit" for the memes
you guys used to use. However, you guys said yourselves that memes are
public domain and therefore belong to either no one or the Internet. If
they belong to no one, then that means they are up for grabs, and thus
Reddit owns them because Reddit claimed them first! However, if they
belong to the Internet, they're still Reddit's because Reddit is the
epitome of the Internet! It's all quite simple.
Now, as for
bringing coolface and FFFFFUUUUU into the real world, it's all a matter
of bringing more people into our culture. A joke isn't funny if it's
just kept to a few people, and we want as many people as possible to
enjoy the hilarity that are these memes. I'm sorry if that bothers you
that we're making money off these, but I bet you're just jealous that we
thought to sell them first. As the meme goes, Problem? XD
I hope
this cleared some stuff up with you guys, and maybe we can become
friends now! We have our own memes, you know, and maybe you could start
using them! You're already using monkey face, so that's a good start! |
