Mingyu At the Swimming Pool

0

Mingyu At the Swimming Pool is a k-pop meme about a member of the boy group SEVENTEEN that originated from a series of tweets posted on the official Twitter account of the group. In the tweets, it shows multiple pictures of one of the members, rapper Kim Mingyu, who was posing at a swimming pool in Singapore during their Shining Diamond Asia Tour on around August 12, 2016 to August 18, 2016. Mingyu posed in a total of six different photos, dressed in swimming trunks, tank top and a flowery swimming cap. The tweet garnered a total of 23 000+ retweets and 34 000+ likes over a period of four days. After the first tweet was posted with two photos of him (one of him doing a half-lunge and another of him standing ankle-deep in the shallow end of the pool), fans of SEVENTEEN, also known as Carats, began to superimpose Mingyu’s poses and face onto various pictures and GIFs, such as on the edge of a cliff and in a yoga class. A few days later on August 18, Mingyu tweeted from the official account that he had seen some of the fan-made edits, and posted four more pictures of himself in the same pool, this time leaning over the edge of the pool with his arms out, sitting on the edge of the pool, lowering one of his feet into the pool and peeking out of the water while submerged, all while still wearing the same outfit, which got 19 000 retweets and 26 000+ likes within six hours. A third tweet was also posted almost immediately after with Mingyu sitting on the edge of the pool, which resulted in 16 000+ retweets and 23 000+ likes. These pictures of Mingyu were also Photoshopped into other pictures (such as on a diving board in the 2012 London Summer Olympics and in a screenshot of Korean singer/songwriter PSY’s music video, Gangnam Style). By this time, other non-Carat members of the k-pop fandom began to notice the trend and started posting edits of their own, making Mingyu At the Swimming Pool a popular k-pop trend on Twitter and Instagram.

Cher

About

Cher (born Cherilyn Sarkisian) is an American actress and singer (born May 20th, 1946). She has had an extensive career both on screen and in the studio, and has won an Emmy, Academy Award, Grammy, and several Golden Globes. In the 21st Century, she has remained in the public eye thanks in large to her eccentric Twitter account, where her idiosyncratic way of typing with all capital letters, shoddy spelling, and emojis have made her extremely popular on the microblogging website.

Career

Cher first reached public attention in 1965 as one half of the folk-rock husband-and-wife duo Sonny & Cher when their song “I Got You Babe” reached number 1 in America and England.[1] Despite a rocky relationship with soon-to-be-ex-husband Sonny Bono, Cher continued her music career through the 1960s and 1970s. During the late 1970s, Cher broke through on television with The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour and musically experimented with disco. However, by the late 70s, her popularity was declining. In the 1980s, Cher returned to a more rock-based sound and began a successful acting career. In the 80s, she starred in films including The Witches of Eastwick (below, left), Mask, Silkwood, and Moonstruck (below, right), for which she won the Academy Award for best actress.



In the late 80s, Cher had become a bonafide movie star, and returned to music with the smash hit “If I Could Turn Back Time” (below Left) in 1989. She did not have a hit of the same level until 1998, when she released her album Believe. The title-track of that album (below, right) became one of her all-time most popular hits.



Online Presence

Cher is extremely popular on social media, with over 2 million Facebook[2] likes and 360 thousand Instagram[3] followers.

Twitter Presence

Cher’s Twitter[4] has proven her most popular social media account. She has 3.11 million followers as of August 18th, 2016. Her idiosyncratic mix of disregarded grammar, outspokenness, caps-lock tweets, emojis, and left-leaning politics have captured the attention of Twitter users.



Cher’s Twitter has been celebrated by The New York Times,[5] who commended Cher as “perhaps the last unreconstructed high-profile Twitter user to stand at her digital pulpit and yell (somewhat) incomprehensibly, and be rewarded for it.” Buzzfeed[6][8] has written several times about Cher’s tweets, once calling every one a “small masterpiece.” The Huffington Post[7] compiled a list of times Cher “dragged” Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Twitter. Other publications that have written about Cher’s tweets include Harper’s Bazaar,[9] Complex,[10]NME,[11] Gawker,[12] Elle,[13] and many more. The Daily Dot[14] declared Cher “the best person on Twitter.”

Sinnoh Confirmed

About

“Sinnoh Confirmed” Is a catchphrase associated with fan speculations and hoaxes about a possible remake of Nintendo’s Pokémon Generation IV video games Diamond Version and Pearl Version, both of which are set in the Sinnoh region. It is used similarly to Half-Life 3 Confirmed.

Origin

Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl were released in September 2006 in Japan and throughout 2007 for the rest of the world, marking the launch of the fourth generation of Pokémon video games. The belief that there will be remakes of these games stems from the fact that there had been remakes of the Pokemon generations prior to Diamond and Pearl. Because the remakes of Generation I were released during the Generation III, Generation II during the Generation IV, and Generation III during the Generation V games, many fans believe that Generation IV would be revived during Generation VI. This lead to certain fans looking for details in the Generation VI titles that would hint at a remake of the Generation IV games. Amidst intense speculations on Pokémon fan forums, “Sinnoh confirmed” became a tongue-in-cheek way of mocking these believers.

Spread

After the launch of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, the meme rose to some popularity, seeing that rumors had been confirmed of the Hoenn region getting a remake, many fans began to look for hope that there may be a remake of the Generation IV games. It has spread on several social media platforms and websites, such as Reddit [1], Tumblr [2], and Twitter [3].

Ash's Kalos League Controversy

0
0

This entry contains spoilers for the Pokémon anime series.
Currently a work in progress.


Overview

Ash’s Kalos League Controversy refers to fandom reaction to a recent episode of the Pokémon anime series in which protagonist Ash Ketchum (or Satoshi in the original Japanese version) reached the finals of a significant tournament and failed to win.

Background

The event was notable in spite of having occured many times previously in the series because of several breaks in the usual formula. This time around, Ash reached the final of the tournament, which had not occured prior to the “XY&Z” arc of the series. He had a more typically “powerful” team featuring popular Pokémon from the recent games, and a member of his team, Greninja, gained a special form. Additionally, many other previous series traditions had been broken this time, and the next games in the video game franchise on which the series is loosely based, Sun and Moon, will not feature a typical Pokémon league. This led many fans to speculate that Ash would finally achieve his goal of winning the Pokémon league before the series moves on to follow the next set of games.

The series built towards the league tournament’s climax which would be resolved in the 131st episode (of the XY series only). The Japanese episode title for this episode was revealed ahead of its airing as “Kalos League Victory! Satoshi’s Ultimate Match!!” which fueled speculation yet further due to use of the word “victory” and the allusion to the fact that thus far, this is Ash’s greatest progress in the league tournament. Ash was set up to meet new character Alain, popular in his own right for being a different kind of character to the more typically “shonen hero” style of character in Ash.

Notable Developments

The episode aired on the Japanese network TV Tokyo on August 18, 2016. Bulbapedia summarised the events of the episode on their website, referring to the episode as “XY131” in accordance with their reference system, noting first and foremost:[1]

The Full Battle between Ash and Alain ends in Alain’s victory, making him the winner of the Lumiose Conference and Pokémon Champion.

The episode received negative reactions across Pokémon-related fan sites, including r/Pokemon,[2] where one user decryed the writing:

Ash is probably the only main character that will never win because of motherfucking plot armor

The comment received around 600 upvotes within 10 hours.

Discussion on popular Pokémon fansite Serebii.net featured a thread querying the reaction of Japanese fans compared with Western fans. Repliers agreed that reaction was negative on both sides of the world.[3]

Promotional videos for the episode on YouTube garnered a high ratio of “dislikes” on the Japanese web. One video managed to gain over 18,000 disliked compared to a measly 400 likes.[4]


Reactions on Twitter were mixed, and saw much discussion under the hashtag #KalosLeagueFinals.[5] 4chan’s dedicated Pokémon board, /vp/, also reacted strongly with a mix of negativity but also the usual trolling and shitposting.

About

#CoverTheAthlete is a social media campaign aimed at highlighting and combating apparent gender bias in interviews, commentaries and media coverage of female athletes in sports journalism. Originally launched in October 2015, the anti-sexist campaign saw a notable resurgence during the 2016 Summer Olympics in August 2016.

Origin

In October 2015, Canadian advertising executives and athletes Jessica Schnurr and Hannah Smit launched the official campaign website[3] with the hashtag banner #CoverTheAthlete,[6] which seeks to raise awareness about “sexist commentary, inappropriate interview questions and articles” focused solely on the physical appearance of female athletes. According to Schnurr, they decided to address the issue after watching a video clip of a post-game TV interview at the 2015 Australian Open tournament (shown below, left).

On October 28th, 2015, an audio-dubbed satire video featuring a montage of male athletes looking baffled by irrelevant questions about their private lives from mock sportscasters and interviews, juxtaposed with the interview of Eugenie Bouchard at the 2015 Australian Open in which the reporter asks Canadian tennis player Eugenie Bouchard to "give a twirl and talk about her outfit. Over the next year, the video gained over 1.68 million views and 760 comments (shown below, right).



Spread

On November 3rd, 2015, Redditor samuraislider submitted the #CoverTheAthlete video to the /r/videos[2] subreddit, where it gathered upwards of 6,700 votes (56% upvoted) and 1,400 comments. In the comments section, many users argued about whether female athletes received more inappropriate questions than males.

2016 Summer Olympics

On August 14th, University of Denver law professor Nancy Leong tweeted a photograph of a headline in the The Eagle, a newspaper from Bryan-College Station, Texas, which placed a line about Michael Phelps’ tie for the silver medal in the men’s 100-meter in larger font above Katie Ledecky’s world record for the womens’ 800 freestyle. In the Twitter post, Leong captioned the image with “This headline is a metaphor for basically the entire world,” alluding that the headline choice was an example of institutional sexism. Within five days, the tweet gathered upwards of 48,800 likes and 37,900 retweets.



In the coming days, the image was widely circulated on Twitter, with many using the hashtag #CoverTheAthlete.[7][8] Meanwhile, others countered the claim that the headline was sexist, pointing out that Phelps was likely placed above Ledecky due to his high-profile celebrity status rather than his gender (shown below).[9][10]



On August 17th, Mashable[4] published an article titled “The Rio Olympics coverage is rife with sexism and here’s what needs to change,” followed by an article titled “The hashtag #CoverTheAthlete still very relevant in Rio, unfortunately” the next day.[5]
