Do I read these top to bottom or clockwise?

That's the wild thing—I've tried all sorts of ways and it reads like a viable meme whichever way I read it.

That's it. Slices are consumed in any order. A sliced meme must obey this rule.

Forgive me for not knowing the names, but I randomized a few to test.

Red: "We slice the meme. Everybody is using panels."
Stripes: "We slice the meme."
Red: "A sliced meme."
Stripes: "A sliced meme."
Red: "We use slices."

Red: "A sliced meme. Everybody is using panels."
Stripes: "A sliced meme."
Red: "We use slices."
Stripes: "We slice the meme."
Red: "We slice the meme."

Red: "We use slices. A sliced meme."
Stripes: "A sliced meme."
Red: "We slice the meme."
Stripes: "We slice the meme."
Red: "Everybody is using panels."

I guess it works? Weird that it ended up with the same speaking order each time.

These are George and Jerry from the Sitcom "Seinfeld", and I only mention it because if you've never seen it, it's very worth a watch.

It has held up very well (although the actor who played "Kramer" is a disappointment as a human.)

I've heard it's full of cliches ; )

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It certainly is. A lot of the humor in Seinfeld has been lovingly copied to death. The same is true for "Get Smart". But in both cases, I found that the original holds up surprisingly well, anyway.

I disagree that it is worth a watch, but don't let that stop ya. Just know that the like is not universal and it is fine to not like it. Or to like it if you do, didn't mean to imply otherwise

Unless you cross the center in a step then the speaking order will always be the same, just phase shifted.

[–] roserose56@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

Always clockwise.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

I can imagine exactly the way they would say this

Actually so good.
