dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Its old English. I don't speak it but old English is like halfway between English, German and a Scandinavian language so it's somewhat legible.

Hu is how.
Meahte is made/could.
Ic is I.
Ceosan is choose.
furþum is fair/even/just.

So "How could I even choose" but I don't think that's actually how they would say that? But as I said i don't speak the language.

Could be. I don't speak the language. I can just recognise the words.
