Vamos esclarecer isso agora.<\/em><\/p>\n

Trata-se de um “meme”. Os memes s\u00e3o elementos culturais compartilhados por um grupo de pessoas e se espalham por repeti\u00e7\u00e3o ou imita\u00e7\u00e3o atrav\u00e9s da internet, sobretudo em redes sociais como Facebook ou Twitter, mas tamb\u00e9m podem se expandir por meios mais gerais. Neste caso, o meme original se adaptou porque, al ser uma ora\u00e7\u00e3o complexa, permite a substitui\u00e7\u00e3o de seus elementos para construir express\u00f5es paralelas. Mas, de onde vem esse meme?<\/em><\/p>\n

Na comunidade de f\u00e3s de video games a resposta \u00e9 \u00f3bvia. O lan\u00e7amento mais esperado de 2011 foi a quinta parte da saba The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. \u00c9 a continua\u00e7\u00e3o do famoso jogo Oblivion, que se tornou cl\u00e1ssico desde sua apari\u00e7\u00e3o em 2006. \u00c9 um jogo de interpreta\u00e7\u00e3o onde aparecem personagens com os quais o jogador pode interagir, conversar e negociar. No Skyrim, uma dessas figuras \u00e9 o guarda armado (h\u00e1 muitos deles). As conversas com esses guardas n\u00e3o s\u00e3o essenciais para o jogo e eles soltam algumas frases pr\u00e9-determinadas. O problema \u00e9 que, depois de falar com v\u00e1rios desses guardas, certamento todos acabam respondendo com a mesma frase: “Eu era aventureiro como voc\u00ea, mas levei uma flechada no joelho.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Os f\u00e3s do jogo descubriram isso logo e come\u00e7aram a fazer coment\u00e1rios humor\u00edsticos em f\u00f3runs e conversas, at\u00e9 que se tornou o meme que est\u00e1 na moda atualmente e que podemos adaptar \u00e0s nossas necessidades substutuindo a primeira parte como quisermos. Por exemplo: “Eu antes lia o blog de portugu\u00eas da Transparent, mas levei uma flechada no joelho.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Alguma ideia para outras frases divertidas usando esse meme?<\/em><\/p>\n

Of arrows and knees<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you browse the internet often, you are more than likely to have come across recently in comments or blogs something along the lines of: \u201cI used to be\u2026 but I took an arrow to the knee.\u201d Some people will be already chuckling, while many of you probably don\u2019t know what this expression refers to. I\u2019ll clarify that now.<\/p>\n

It is a \u201cmeme\u201d. Memes are cultural elements, shared by a group of people, that are spread around online through repetition or imitation, especially using social networking sites like facebook or Twitter, but may also spill out into more generic media. In this case, the original meme has been adapted because, being a complex sentence, it allows for the substitution of elements in it that will build parallel expressions. But\u2026 where does this meme come from?<\/p>\n

For those in the gamer community, the answer is obvious. The most eagerly awaited video game launched in 2011 was the fifth installment in The Elder Scrolls saga: Skyrim. It is the continuation of the award-winning game Oblivion, an instant classic since it came out in 2006. It is a role-playing game, in which players can interact with other non-playing characters (NPCs) to make certain transactions or have conversations with. In Skyrim, one of those NPC figures is the armed guard, of which there are quite a few. Conversations with these guards are not essential to gameplay, and they tend to come up with a limited set of pre-scripted utterances. The problem is that, after talking to a few of them, they all invariably end up replying with a similar sentence: \u201cI used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee.\u201d<\/p>\n

Game fans found out about this fairly soon, and it started to be commented in a funny way all over forums and conversations, until it ended up becoming the meme that is so popular today, and that we can adapt to our own needs by using any phrase we want for the first part of the sentence. For example: \u201cI used to read the Transparent Spanish blog, then I took an arrow in the knee.\u201d<\/p>\n

Any other ideas for funny sentences using this meme?<\/p>\n
