Are there any keyboard memes? I suspect this thread would be empty if we were sticking to memes and not image macros.

basically. it's like an evolving joke essentially. like uhhh i guess the cloud of boobs thing would sortof be like a geekhack meme. but it really doesnt have to be related to the internet necessarily.

hashbaz · « **Reply #56 on:** Thu, 02 May 2013, 23:12:44 »

So you don't think it's valid to refer to keyboard-flavored instances of established memes as "keyboard memes" ?

Or are you saying that "meme" only refers to the Platonic joke itself, and never the instances?

Could we consider tp4 a meme? I don't know if he's really evolving, though. He might be going the other way.

no it's just that simply putting impact font over tired and overused images aren't memes. and cookie cutter things arent memes. they are image macros. its complicated. and tp4tissue is just an e-hero

I can never understand why some people want a completely different key feel on their stabilized keys

100% my exact thoughts.

I even think the claim that the Cherry stabs feel is intentional, is complete bogus --- a few people claim that the Cherry stabs are supposed to have their own "bottom-out" padding or cushioning.... well I call BS! Why would they do that? Someone made that up so they can feel better about their Cherry stabs I think.

inteli722 · « **Reply #89 on:** Fri, 17 May 2013, 07:59:47 »

Since this has become another "Costar vs Cherry Stabilizer" Argument, I might as well pipe in.

I don't really care. I prefer Cherry Stabilizers to Costar for ease of removing keys, and the only key I can feel a difference on between the two is the space bar.

I might buy a couple extra sets to try that.

It's not all about feel bro, and if you care that much then lube them. After mine are worn in they don't feel "mooshy" like some people say. Cherry stabilizers are just better stabilizers in terms of swapping keys, and I do it a lot. Costar stabs work, but are a pain in the groin with which to fiddle.

BTW, the Cherry-style stabilisers in a vintage Dytcom board I bought bottom out sharply, not with cushioning. I don't know if Cherry made them or not, though. They sure look like any other Cherry stabilisers in all other respects.
