      Because it was clearly known to the artist. This comic doesn’t even make sense unless you know both the original and that these are Elden Ring characters.

        Yes. Try and keep up with the context of the conversation.

        It helps if you follow what’s going on.

          So it’s not well known enough to be parody as opposed to plagiarism in one context, but everyone has heard of it and is calling it out for plagiarism in another?

          Makes perfect sense.

            Seriously? If you’re unable to follow the conversation then don’t chime in.

            Your little “gotcha!” comments are just showing how much you have no idea what’s been said.

              I can follow a conversation just fine. In one thread, someone says it’s more parody than plagiarism, although the original isn’t super well known so people might not recognize it as parody, to which you reply that it obviously is since three people have called it out for being plagiarism. In this thread, you ask how something can possibly be parody if the original isn’t well enough known.

              Funny though that you gripe about a comic not being well known enough to be effectively parodied in reply to a comment saying the original has its own KnowYourMeme page, then accuse me of not being able to follow a conversation.

                  My definition of plagiarism doesn’t depend on how many people know about a thing.

                    Look man. You took a comment completely out of context with the rest of the conversation. And you’ve now double-downed on it for more than one day. Even after telling you that you’re missing the context you are still still being a moron about it.

                    I cannot express how fucking stupid you continue to be. I’m almost impressed, except that I hate there are people like you on this website. How do you follow conversations in real life? By picking and choosing random sentences and not letting it go for hours?

                    Fuck off. And don’t come back.
