[alt text: text that says, “when your friend is in an argument online and asks you for memes”. Below the text is a screenshot from The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, where the shopkeeper Ulfberth War-Bear is looking at the player character and saying, “Looking to protect yourself, or deal some damage?”]
Depends on the argument I guess. Don’t bring a sweet roll to the kind where you need a war axe.
So hard to believe this game will be 22 years old this year
Not 12 years?
That’s what makes it so hard to believe
And Wikipedia confirms that I was closer to the truth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_V:_Skyrim
how exactly does one protect onesself with a meme?
Just leave a vaguely related meme comment and fucking leave the thread. No one will notice that you have run out of valid points to say.
Deflection via humor would be my guess
People don’t argue as hard if you convince them not to take you seriously.
