Buzzkilling

About

Although the term Buzzkill predates popular usage of the internet, the present tense verb Buzzkilling today is largely associated with a 4chan meme that places more value on the comedic subtletly of straight-forward explanations of what is out of place in an image. In short, it is a form of anti-joke.

Origin

Although Put Yourself in My Shoes never caught on with 4chan, the “Those are my shoes. You are a dog” inspired the creation of other, simpler image macros utilizing the same anti-joke format.

ED offers some commentary on the subject:

The fact that one iteration of a five year old meme has become a meme in itself says something about the need for Original Content.
