How that make it to the box? It's not even video gaming related. DOS is not directly related to video gaming despite being able to play games on DOS.
a games a game. I have kept up with the meme box since the beginning and have yet to notice a single game related meme that's not a video game meme get removed

I'm 50 years old. I'm aware of the card game UNO. Lmao. And yes, it's great. But if that's what the meme was supposed to be referring to, and not DOS, then it makes even less sense to make the memebox under the topic guidelines.

I think it's just a joke about Uno, the card game, and there's no deeper or videogame-related meaning to it.

"Dos" is a variant of Uno where you can put down two cards if the sum of their values equals the top card on the table.

So I think the maymay is just a little bit of silliness of playing a Dos card in a Uno game. Nothing to do with DOS the OS.

It's a loose guideline anyway, and this can be considered videogame related since Uno has almost the same card game in videogame format. From that point, this is just the irl interpretation of it, as there are plenty of videogame memes of irl photos, the connection is so close that there can be no problem since the adaptation is almost identical. But that's just a gaame theory!

In any case it's odd that that was called out when no one said anything about a few regular memes that got to the front page which never got removed a few months back. Better just leave it to the mods to decide, there seems to be no rule. ;o;

They're more sort of guidelines.
I mean one of the rules says "only post pictures if they are funny", and they let that one slide all the time :tpi:

Idk what’s funny about it, not enough of a gamer but cool pic
I'm just curious what it's meant to be. It seems to have a purpose, not just hoarding Wii consoles.
I don't think it is meant to be, but seeing the futility of owning that many Wii consoles displayed like that was hilarious to me. :P
Clearly has a purpose though. Going through the dude's twitter and youtube trying to figure it out.
He has similar collections of GBA carts, Wii games, Gamecubes. Must be running some time of online service. He's definitely doing shiny hunting on the older Pokemon games at least.

Oh no you're right, I just found it funny before I found out the purpose, still kinda funny though. And yeah, something to do with using all of them in for shiny hunting. I assume he wants to obtain many shinies legitimately but is also trying to be super efficient about it.

Reminds me of those people who made robots that search for shiny Pokemon:







Not the worst case mod I've seen.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
