We have seals here in The Puget Sound. Where I live, when the tide is high, it reaches the upper part of the sea wall along the beach. Picture a retaining wall made of logs, about 2 meters high. At the top of the wall is grass. At the bottom is the beach, but when the tide is high, there is no beach. The water will rise along the wall, until it’s almost to the top of it… my dog will run along the edge of the sea wall on the grass… and the seals will follow her in the water. They go back and forth like this. She runs right. They swim right. She runs left. They swim left. She stands still, looking at them. They poke their head out of the water, staring right back at her. It’s hysterical to watch!

Can confirm. When i went scuba diving as a teen they'd love to swim around you. Harbor seals were the cutest and most playful. Elephant seals are scary and definitely want to avoid 😬

Merinkoira! Sorry, I was in Finland recently, watching some cartoon kids show (that was super cute), and this was the one word I learned. Mermaid-dog, essentially. Not so useful, so I'm celebrating it here, because where else?

Seals and sea lions are, in fact, mermaid dogs. Well, they split off the "caniforms" (Latin for "dog-like") about 24 million years ago and are also related to bears and mustelids (which include weasels, skunks, otters and similar creatures.)

Then you get it out with your tongue and eat it days later (even tho you have no idea how long it’s been there).

Loogi recalls constantly quoting memes and vines back when he was 16. So much, in fact, that his friends couldn’t handle it. Their supposed attempt to get him to stop was suggesting the idea of creating a Facebook page to serve as an outlet for the young teen’s passion for memes. And he actually went with it.

“My mates were getting sick of me doing that all the time, so they told me to make a page as a joke. So I did. And people kept giving me [crud] for owning a meme page, so I wanted to strive to get big and show them it wasn’t stupid,” elaborated Loogi.

“I had actually wanted to stop when I hit 1,000 followers because, then, I would have proven my point, but I went from 1,000 to 5,000 in about a week, so I kept it going just because I could.”

Now, what’s a sophisticated gentleman, I hear you ask? Yeah, we had that same question because it’s within the context of memes, and Loogi was more than happy to elaborate on that:

“A sophisticated gentleman is someone who has a good sense of humor, someone who doesn’t post cringe memes or old normie memes. The name was actually a joke at the time as well, because all the pages were called *something* memes for *something* people, and I didn’t want to be generic. ‘Sophisticated gentleman’ was the funniest [thing] I could come up with when I was 16.”

If you’ve been here long enough, you might remember us covering another meme page in that same nominally and thematically niche vein, Wholesome Memes For Kindhearted Homies. There’s also Dank Memes for Dark Ecological Beings, Historical memes for anachronistic teens (pre-1914), Zoom Memes for Self Quaranteens… you get the idea.

Now, running such a big meme page entails a certain level of challenge as well. Besides having to stay relevant and post frequently, Loogi points out that the content has to be such that it gets reach from the Facebook algorithm, but also such that it doesn't get banned.

Fun fact, the aforementioned Zoom Memes for Self Quaranteens was for a time disabled. Sure, it’s not a page, but rather a group, and content has to be moderated differently, but there's still the fact that getting banned, disabled, or otherwise silenced on Facebook as a page or a group is simply a pain in the butt to reconcile.

But having a page means a lot of other great things. Besides congregating a bunch of like-minded individuals and providing meaning in life, there’s always fun to be had in the little things that matter, like seeing the numbers grow, reach expand, and influence go global, as noted by Loogi.

It's not the price, it's the principle. The company was worth him spending $44 billion on, but it is so cash strapped it now has to charge for verification? That don't make no kind of sense.
