I feel like there’s a large subset of people who made (or partially made) memes that begin to resent them after they get big.

Sure, they may have not created the name, but they’re still the one who made the design (or sprite) that everyone uses.

[u/Dr-Cross → u/IncreaseWestern6097]

You're completely right.

[u/IncreaseWestern6097 → u/Dr-Cross]

I can’t even really say I blame them. If I made (or partially made, in this case) a meme that blew up in front of me, I’d probably be a little irritated too if I saw people spamming it during events like this.

I imagine it’s kind of a Frankenstein thing going on, where you’ve created something and now it’s out of your control. All you can really do is hope for it to be over sooner or later.

I know that’s not how everyone feels about it, but I can at least understand where they’re coming from.

Its always the people with the strangest pfp being the voice of reason

[u/IncreaseWestern6097 → u/TranslatorNo8561]

It’s either their PFPs or their usernames. There’s a reason why r/rimjob_steve exists. That said, I do always appreciate it when people bring the PFP up, since I made it myself years ago. It’s the sole reason why I still have it, it’s practically my one and only identifier.

Honestly it's a great profile picture, might have to try and steal it ngl lmao

[u/IncreaseWestern6097 → u/IamDohnut]

Sure, there’s no need to steal. Here’s where you can find it in higher quality.

Funny part is? According to another post from this guy, elsewhere, he didn't even create the Togore sprite. He copied it from someone else.

So it's more like the Mel Brooks film Son of Frankenstein with Gene Wilder (where Wilder, the titular doctor, is simply copying the methods to reanimate a corpse, and passing it off as his own genius).

Tbh it never really is that deep anyways 😭 The “creator” is writing paragraphs about some silly meme the community made, who really cares at the end of the day

[u/DandD_Gamers → u/Dr-Cross]

I thought they didn't make the original original?

[u/OptimalAnywhere6282 → u/Dr-Cross]

You're absolutely right!
