Needle In The Hay: This Years Best Meme>? - Page 3

More than enough times. It's weird it wasn't until a month or so before I quit (WoW) I was talking to a friend about that and told her I'd never seen it. She says I need to see it. So I watch it and it was actually funny.

I don't regret not knowing about it sooner. I'm quite happy being out of the loop sometimes.

my wife brought over a friend. she had a Leeroy Jenkins phone skin. she doesn't play videogames and had no idea.

I hate that douchebag soo bad, but successful
meme is successful.

You hate Leeroy? I thought the whole thing was staged. But maybe that's just my suspicious nature.

Meme - a postulated unit or element of cultural ideas, symbols or practices, and is transmitted from one mind to another through speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena.
first introduced by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene to help explain evolutionary principles as they apply to the spread of ideas or cultural phenomena.

I don't get the "needle in the hay" part. Not that I much care.

yes!

unfortunately, "the spread of ideas" as exemplified by this thread is leading us the way of devolution.

i'm glad i won't be around in the future.

well, if you still don't get it after I've explained it to you, then I'm not sure you can be helped.

Royal Tennenbaums, ((SPOILER AHEAD)) when Owen (or luke I cannot remember which is which) is shaving in front of a mirror, he looks at himself and says "I am going to kill myself tomorrow." or something like that, but then he thinks FUCK IT and breaks his razor and slashes his wrists and almost bleeds to death, the whole time elliot smith's needle in the hay is playing.

if you have not watched the movie, do not watch this cuz it is a pivotal moment in the story.

Sure, I love that movie. Didn't remember that's what was playing. Wow, people do surprise you--didn't think Crypto had it in him to pull off a fairly obscure allusion like that.

I haven't paid much attention to the whole thread, sorry. I'll go back and read through this garbage, maybe.
