We are become Darmok, a thread of memes as allegory

I think this is related:

61515663d48676e7f2938fde617830a7b882d670.jpg

How many do you recognize without the answers?
 
Six. (Top left I know the characters but didn’t remember the pose, center I’ve only seen rarely, bottom left loses a lot in the glyph-ing. Most of the rest were pretty immediate.)
 
The first and the middle one are the only ones I didn't recognize (never even seen the middle). Which surprises me, really. I figured this would be much lower.
 
I don't think I've ever seen the center meme either.

I did not recognize the top middle one but I have seen it before.

I also did not recognize the lower left one but I think I don't see that one very much at all. Sometimes I see it in videos.

(I wanted to refer to the meme glyphs like an alignment chart but I couldn't exactly remember how they're usually laid out. Center one would still be True Neutral no matter what.)

So far 5 of the glyphs have been covered in this thread.

Next meme (I think?):
Anakin and Obi-Wan on Mustafar.
 
He is doing a show in Glasgow when we are in Scotland in March and tickets are bought. I am so excited.

Also "meme boffins" is delightful.

Unrelated, but we went to Scotland in 2024 and I really loved Glasgow. Go to the Kelvingrove, where you can see a free pipe organ recital in the same building as medical and scientific equipment from Joseph Lister and Lord Kelvin.

Nice! Kelvingrove is definitely top of our list. We're only doing one day trip there but lots of cool stuff to choose from.

For sure. We did 3-4 days each in Glasgow, Oban, and Edinburgh. Feel free to DM me if you're looking for recommendations or things like that!
