00:01:30Kevin
For me means, although I see them online, a lot of people just post them on Reddit as you know this is the thought or whatever and then people comment on them.
00:01:41Kevin
I use memes as as a reply mostly I I don't like create my own means too much, but like if I'm in a chat with a friend, I have a small library of memes that I have saved on my phone, just the ones that I like the best.
00:01:58Kevin
And and I use them to reply.
00:02:00Kevin
So if a friend like Jack not too long ago asked me if I was able to do something to help him and I like Rick and Morty, and there's the the Oh yeah can do meeseeks meme.
00:02:12Kevin
And so I replied with that meme to him instead of, you know, typing out yeah, yeah, I can do that.
00:02:18Kevin
I replied with the meme.
00:02:19Kevin
How do you use memes?
