Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

As someone who did archery at national level... Your comment is triggering my need to point out how difficult and different "longbows" are.
I couldn't handle it after years of playing. The term longbow in archery is as calling everything AR15.
Well, a lot of rifles are called AK47 even though most of them are not.
According to the media, every gun is either an AR-15 or a Glock.
Depends on the media I guess, because every gun is literally AK.
That's pretty cool that you did archery at a national level.
Respectfully, I still think that I am correctly interpretting the information on the Wikipedia links sourced above. I'm basing my conclusion off two pieces of evidence. The longbow wiki page linked above mentions that longbows existed in "many cultures", and there is a separate Wikipedia page for the English Longbow. This pushes me to conclude that there is a symantical difference between the two terms, "longbow" and "English Longbow" though many people assume the latter when the former is mentioned.
I think that's an English thing because they're still celebrating Agincourt.
Yeah, MIT prefers pistol dueling for its Certification of Piracy
