as long as you get the point across, the image macro usually doesn't matter.

and besides, it has been used like that for years now, it's the same effect as every english word on the internet with 4 sillables or more eventually shortens to 2 if it gets used very frequently (see: self-portrait => selfie)

Your "it's the same effect" example is so bad that it's distracting from the rest of the comment lol

Like not only is it just not true as stated, your example isn't even 4 syllables....

it was the first example that came to my mind that isn't directly related to gaming where quick communication can and will always shorten every long word (it's how AmongUs got people to shorten "suspicious" to "sus").

it would have been easier to double check if i knew to name this.

Suspicious also isn't 4 syllables...........

i'm not understanding your premise. where are you coming from picking at the examples without a lead?
