Does this qualify as a meme? I'm never quite sure.

[EarnestPutz]

1. Well, Granny I really can't help you. I don't understand...

...what this is supposed to mean. Bad grammar and two double negatives make it hard to turn into a meme. Nice photo though, maybe that could be the basis of a meme.

3. It's a quote from Men in Black...

Will Smith says it to an alien is fighting

[Hermit-The-Prog]

10. it's much, much older than that

I heard a slight variation of this when I was a kid. Freedom Riders stopped at my mother's tiny little restaurant (max capacity 20 persons) and the (only) waitress asked, "What if there's trouble?" Mom just grabbed a menu and a "guest check" and said, "If they don't start any, there won't be none."

Fairly certain she heard it somewhere before, so look back before the '60s to find its origin.

4. Why?

Double negatives mean the opposite

Start something, do something

I love the meme

[Hermit-The-Prog]

11. double negatives may be a suthun thang

I understood 'em perfectly.

Translation:

If you don't want trouble, don't start it.

[Evergreen Emerald]

2. I Love It.

I want to hang it on my wall.

[Solly Mack]

5. Don't start no shit won't be no shit. Don't start none won't be none when dropping the word shit.

Said it from childhood.

It's still a favorite of mine.

[mopinko]

6. hell, it's

my fucking motto.

people who know me either love me or hate me.
mostly the divide breaks down this way-
if i fought w you, you love me.
if i fought against you, you hate me.


my favorite people, tho, are the ones i fought against, who have no hard feelings, and who now know that if the day comes, i will be right there w them fighting their fights just as hard as my own.

[Solly Mack]

7. You sound wonderful!

I mean that.

[mopinko]

16. well then

thanks so much. i am a fan of yours, too.

[Solly Mack]

17. I enjoy eating olives out of the jar.

We could fight about that.

[mopinko]

19. hahahaaa. lemme tell you a story-

i was about 10 when my oldest sister got married.
she had a small reception at our house. among the food was a couple of gallon jars of olives, something i had never seen before.
wasnt into the black ones at the time, but green olives? a gallon of them? omg i pigged out.
kept sneaking into the kitchen and putting olives on all my fingers then eating them.

the next day my skin had a distinct green hue.

ya gonna have to dig deep, methinks.

[Solly Mack]

20. I'd have done the same. I'm not feeling too edgy at the moment.

We'll have to put the arguing on the back-burner for now.

I don't like kale.

[mopinko]

21. i grow kale cuz it is pretty, but i dont eat it.

lemme know when you are feelin pissy.

[Solly Mack]

22. OK. You'll know because I stop smiling and my eyebrows move up a lot.

Also, when I'm really pissed I sing "Jingle Bells".

[mopinko]

23. well ok, here is a start. when i am pissed i sing

"which side are you on"

[Solly Mack]

24. Feisty.

[Sogo]

8. I love it, too.

You go girls!

[Mosby]

[irisblue]

[uponit7771]
