Oddly, I dont know what that word means and at this point I am too afraid to ask.
Edit: checked Urban Dictionary and NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You were right to be afraid!
What's wrong with lollies. I love sucking on them. /s
and someone who makes good memes, they would certainly be an icon!
we should give them a name that reflects that… LOLicon perhaps? an icon of the LOL!
embarrassing confession
for way too long i genuinely thought that’s what "lolicon" meant… ;-;
I thought it was something like a favicon. Now I'm concerned.
Searching this on google gets me weird results... Hold on, someone's at the door.
the feds confiscated my laptop because I kept sending them extremist laughables
We only seized it so we could have your whole collection. It's lit, fam
You take that back!!! Nobody takes my comedicles
Someone put in the effort to make thiz
I believe this is a form of the phenomenon Papyrus Irony
Tbh, this meme should go on that index, because 460 likes on instagram is nothing compared to ~120 (so far) upvotes on Lemmy.
Counter-suggestion, lolcubez. Because they're square.
I like this but what about the loltangles?
That's gifs but they are actually cuboids. (Videos with sound have two or more extra dimensions, making them hyper cuboids.)
To live is to be cringe.
funclicles is my suggestion
This seems like some kind of thing some company would try so they could have a trademarkable word for memes.
This is a good meme. I agree.
Ecks dees
How about "image macro?" 😏
I think we should use "Rofles"
Or Rolfs!
Oi! We call'em laffis!
My other half's sister calls them memes, pronounced like the first person singular pronoun me.
Drives her teenage sons mad every time.
I like me-mes and may-mays
Chuckables.
Guffawfables.
No.
Good idea. Then meme can go back to meaning what it is supposed to mean.
Is that bugs bunny
Cyber-quips
Demotivational posters
I think you said it in the post: laughables. I like it personally.
Psycho-Shareables.
I don't know. Laughables sounds like something you eat
