    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.”

    I felt quite liberated when I realized people in my vicinity are generally not thinking about me. They’ve got their affairs occupying their mind. That goes double for strangers. Don’t sweat stuff like this.

    Lol. I got so annoyed with the people that came in after us at the pizza place yesterday. It was between rush times and all the tables were empty. We sat and about 10 mins later a couple came in and had choice of any of the tables and chose to sit right behind me. Like, wtaf. You could of chosen a spot with some space between us instead of right up against my chair!

    This reminds me about this thing I do.. When holding a door open for someone and some other people happen to be approaching even 20+ meters away, I feel the need to keep holding the door open for them too as if they would take it personally... (Yea I might overthink stuff "slightly") :D

    I do the same thing on treadmills at the gym. I'll walk for a few more mins so the new person next to me doesn't think I'm leaving immediately just bc they arrived.

    A guy walked up to me in Starbucks and asked if he could sit at my table for two. I said sure, I'm leaving anyway but not because you asked to sit down, no really.

    It’s happened to me once before. As I stood up, I awkwardly assured them that I wasn’t getting up just because they sat down! 😭

    Depending on the timing, it may appear you are leaving simply due to their arrival. Moments of psychological awkwardness. I admit, I've done it...

    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.
