Hej Vikings. It’s carly. And welcome to the 40th Viking Diaries entry, exclusively on Kidztalk
Song of the day :
(Lyricless Joik.. Well, all Joiks are lyricless )
So, Facebook memes.
Facebook memes are the peak of unfunny humor. Everyone agrees, even my mom who uses Facebook agrees they’re unfunny
Ok, so the day was Sunday. I just came back from my IKEA and I decided to paint a Sámi boy using my new IKEA watercolors. I was listening to music and wearing headphones and vibing to some Mari Boine.
Then my grandma broke into the door (she didn’t actually) and she showed me a bunch of those Facebook memes about technology. One was about this girl who is looking at a newspaper and she was like asking her dad why she can’t swipe on a newspaper. another one is about this bird who was asking another bird about a video game called “Flight simulator.” and a bunch of other weird memes.
Now, This is apparently the stuff my older relatives laugh at. A lot of people of all ages hate thsese.
The main concern I have with these is HOW. STEREOTYPICAL. THEY. PORTAY. TEENS. These memes portray all teenagers as Technology-obsesed and that is their only personality trait. I mean, as a fellow teenager, I can agree Technology is epic. but there is more to just technology. because of these memes, my grandma assumes I only watch meaningless content on Youtube. All I watch are either Art Videos or videos about Nordic countries. at least I’m not like those 8 year olds who literally just stay watching Skibidi toilet. This reminds about the time last month when my aunts called my music meaningless because it is in Swedish-
anywayswho, stay safe from the facebook meme pandemic. if your parent or any relative over the age of 40 sends you one of these r u n. and hide in your local IKEA with every single book by Vilhelm Moberg you own (IKEA is our sanctuary, we have shelter and meatballs)
