The Rise of Weird Facebook: How the World’s Biggest Social Network Became Cool Again (and Why It Matters)http://nymag.com/following/2016/02/weird-facebook-became-cool-again.html
weird twitter sorta fizzled out a couple years ago (perhaps its last gasp of brilliance was Marijuana Simpson in the summer of 2014), and i've been enjoying the fruits of Weird Facebook for months now without ever realizing we had entered a new golden age of memes and heavily processed jpgs.

really? imo it seems a lot more effortless than weird twitter, since it's not built on individual personalities. and it's a lot weirder and more diverse than the FYAD clan

i think the worst sin you can ever commit on the internet is liking the wrong memes and weird facebook is doing that

I enjoy the UUU pages at times but a lot of this stuff is definitely extremely tryhard, although it's exactly the kind of shit I'd probably be doing if I were in college now.

i've been making "weird facebook" things since around the time I started using it -- 2008? -- and it's not like i was unique in doing this. is it just that more people are sharing "weird" memes or is it a total glossy publication latepass issue?

more people are sharing weird memes, i'd been into it for months before i ever saw any article explicating it

i think the facebook macro thread on ilx is filled with way more interesting images and memes than the weird facebook pages imo
