How Lessons in Meme Culture Ruins Memes

Lessons in Meme Culture is the reason why many memes die. LiMC (short for Lessons in Meme Culture) makes videos explaining the origin or founder of a meme or where it comes from. @LIMC Lessons in Meme Culture thereby kills their humor and fun.

It is all clearly and obviously explained in this video by Duckaye who made "LiMC: The Man Who Is Single-Handedly Killing Memes"

EnricoDev also critizised LiMC in his video "Lessons In Meme Culture (LiMC): a Critical Analysis"

ok nah im playing this is actually a video on why both of them are wrong. No offense tho- their videos are cool :)

people scream about him killing memes when the dude is sometimes MONTHS late

Being irrationally defensive of memes is peak terminal onlineness.

Being mad at LIMC is like getting mad at a doctor that told you "You have diabetes" and acting as if he gave you diabetes.

LIMC is a blessing to meme culture. His videos are short, simple, informative, and to the point. He’s not trying to be funny or pander to audiences or anything, he knows his role on the internet and he’s going to try his hardest to make people appreciate meme culture more.

People acting like there's a meme shortage and we will eventually run out of memes. 🤣

[fenrirsrage]

I'm really happy to see people defend LIMC, especially because what he does is pretty harmless and is doing his best to inform people about things that they have no idea about because meme culture is getting more weirder and new ones are being made way too fast.

I swear it's like parts of the internet can't stop to make hatedoms for the most smallest of things for even five minutes.

This is the exact definition of terminally online

I legit think that LIMC will actually be a really helpful resource for historians decades, maybe centuries from now. I feel that a lot of people don’t think of memes as anything other than “internet funny hahas”, but the truth is they’re a reflection of culture, politics, public opinion, etc. which are invaluable from a historical perspective. Big respect for him.

The thing that makes LIMC better is that in the Community posts, he posts memes
He's not disconnected like Behind the Meme

[poweroffriendship.]

I'm hoping that LIMC didn't end getting the same fate as what happened to Behind The Meme back in the day. Imagine unironically taking yourself seriously over a meme.

[Flip-a-dip-dip]

Honestly now that I’m getting older, I hate to admit it, but it’s getting harder and harder to keep up with today’s meme culture. I don’t really have time to lurk on the Internet like I used to. That’s why I really like LIMC. He helps keep me informed and does so in an easily digestible way.

[justmazen]

LIMC just explains a meme format to ppl who are out of the loop, it doesnt make memes less funny at all

[nathanmarshall]

Imagine being such a hipster that you hate memes once enough people get the joke

[neonrainbow]

Are people actually complaining about a dude explaining memes 🤣 people find anything to complain about huh? Great video, the editing was hilarious, and your mostly monotone voice somehow makes your sarcasm better and even funnier. Keep up the good work man 👌

[Dra_gon]

Bro really said “WHY WOULD YOU HAVE CONSISTENTLY GOOD CONTENT!! OH, AND YOU’RE CALM AND COLLECTED?!?”

[justaguy-mo]

LIMC is literally just a person who made a recognizable channel explaining memes. He just analyzes and explains it. He helped me understand a lot of memes, like ishowmeat. A wise man in the comments once said, "Being mad at LIMC is like being mad at your doctor who diagnosed you with diabetes, acting like he gave you diabetes.".

[stuffedheart]

I'm glad he exists, he covers the most annoying / unfunny memes so people stop making them and its a relief

[Jellyman]

LIMC having very clear thumbnails is what a thumbnail is supposed to do. Also, MANY other YouTubers reuse the same thumbnail *cough* Hungrybox.

[jimborevengeance]

LIMC is like, the most inoffensive youtube personality ever, Behind the Meme at least had some very annoying things to latch onto. The only real criticism i can bring to LIMC is that he does it for money, but than again, most youtubers are here for that, i certainly wouldn't want to keep up with every single stupid flavor of the week meme just to explain them for free. He doesn't oversell himself, he does nothing to spite or bait people, he literally just explains memes as his job.

[Tommuniqo]

He really had me in the first half there. I personally really enjoy LIMC’s content and I hope he continues what he’s doing because his content works.
