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.

I was not referring to you personally. I was generalizing. My comment was not rude. You simply perceived it as rude.
I would ask you to speak for yourself. You do not speak for all of society. Perhaps one isn't free from potentially being the recipient of attempted social pressure, but one is certainly free to ignore it. I've been doing it for most of my adult life. I do what I feel is logical. Not what others would have me do.
You're missing the point. There's so many pressures you don't even perceive. Your whole perception of what's appropriate is not free from influence.
This is an entirely subjective argument. I'll accept this as your opinion, and perhaps your personal experience, and leave it at that.
This is a heavily studied topic in mental health, various humanities disciplines, career coaching, etc. I'm not inventing this concept.
