Disclaimer #1: If you don't understand the whole "animation thing" and don't think those things are animation memes, you might as well leave. You don't need to be a part of this. Disclaimer #2: Don't think I'm biased- I animate with code AND frame-by-frame. I know the challenges of both forms of animation. Disclaimer #3: The person I'm complaining about (who will not be mentioned) honestly has very good artwork and animation. Please don't think I'm bashing them for the hard work they put into their stuff- I can't deny that. Disclaimer #4: I do think that meme re-colors are lazy, and I personally do not approve of it. I will be discussing original memes specifically, and perhaps remixes with a huge amount of creativity and work put into them. With that out of the way, let's get started. O k- Why do people think coded memes are lazy? Like, what?? I literally don't understand- - Not going to name names, (and if any of you happen to know or guess who I'm talking about, please don't mention them in the comments. [IF I even keeps comments on- ) but someone posted a frame-by-frame animation meme and they kinda ticked me off with what they said in their description. They admitted that there was already a meme to the same song (I am someone who's not against multiple memes to the same song) but they said something along the lines of this: "I know there was a coded meme to this song, but those things get way more attention than the people who actually put effort into their stuff." Like hOLD ON- Sure it's ok to make a different meme to the same song, but flat out calling the other one LAZY?? I know for a fact that the person who did the coding meme (because they're a friend of mine [and don't think I'm biased because they're my friend) that they work very hard at what they do. Recently something HORRIBLE happened to my friend, and so they make a meme kinda about how they'll carry on and idk (that's the vibe i got from it anyway) and then someone who's more popular (no offence I hope- ) comes along and puts them down for it?? I spent DAYS (I'm not just talking the different days I worked, I'm talking when you add the hours up) of my precious time coding and drawing an original meme for a good irl friend because something horrible happened to them as well. I guess this person consider DAYS of hard work coding the meme to be timed just right, and to draw the artwork to look as good as I can... LAZY? It's honestly such an insult... Also, even though there may not be any frame-by-frame in (most) coding memes, there's still gorgeous artwork that takes plenty of time and effort to create, even if the coding is a little simple. You shouldn't just call people lazy just because you think you're better then everyone else?? If a person is so against coded memes, then why are they even on scratch in the first place?? YouTube is a much better place for people like that. There isn't code to deal with there. And if you're reading this, person who believes coding memes are lazy, then guess what. I un-followed you because if this. I really respected you for your hard work and gorgeous artwork, but your opinion on coded memes makes me sick. Sorry for wasting everyone's time. ^^' Have a good day. If I get any hate for this then I'll be even more disgusted with the human race then ever before. (That's why this isn't on my main account: to prevent that if possible.) Also I don't rly care about typos. I (probably) have a reading disability, so sorry if you're triggered by that. (Or anything in this for that matter.)
