For when you need a laugh!
The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!
But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

This is absurd. You're talking in circles and not responding to my words, and you have completely ignored me asking if you're actually curious to understand what I'm saying.
If you can't even pretend to be curious to understand me, and in the absence of any evidence that you are, I see no point in continuing to talk to you.
You can change that and bring me back by being reponsive to what I've said, although I don't hold out a lot of hope that you will.
Talk to others outside your culture. Heck, go abroad! You will realise how vast the gulf of difference the values of other cultures are. Too many people don't care about the environment and want to live hedonistically. This is why anarchism doesn't work in practice, because this is anarchism in practice. And this is why we are having the global problem called climate change (and global conflicts). Idealist anarchist such as yourself tend not to consider the reality that other people simply think too differently for idealised anarchism to work on a large scale.
That has nothing to do with what I just said. You might want to work on that "talking to other people" thing, because you're bad at it, and I'm not sticking around for you to inflict more of it on me.
Agree to disagree but the way the world works at the moment is just how it is and the reality.
If you never bother to listen to anyone else then you'll never learn anything.
Right, good luck pontificating to Egyptians, Chinese, Koreans, Somalis, Congolese, and Greeks to recycle, stop sprinkling golf courses with too much water, stop being materialistic and embrace anarchism. We will see if they don't get annoyed at you or look at you weirdly for doing it.
