This image macro compresses text superimposed over imagery from Duke Nukem 3D, not They Live.

Yep, that is the history of the meme. It sorta says all that on the page I linked to in the response above ☝️

I wasn't asking about the history of the quote. I know the history of the quote. I was commenting on the use of a reference to a reference.

Was it a rip-off, or was it homage?

I'd play that game.

[–] SpaceNoodle 1 points 3 weeks ago

Why credit a near 30-year-old homage instead?

Are you not also here for cat pics?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There arent nearly enough cat pictures and cat communities on lemmy

Cats are overrated. I like dogs more.
