A pic is not a reference.

oh okay, HEY GUYS, SOME RANDOM ON THE INTERNET HAS DECIDED THAT A PICTURE CAN NO LONGER BE CONSIDERED A REFERENCE. JUST THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW. seriously, that's not something any person can just decide.

ARE ALL-CAPS A REFERENCE?

Maybe the pic has to be an analogy, a metaphor, to be a "REFERENCE"? A selfie or a portrait isn't a reference unless it adds meaning to the conversation in some way.

yeah, all caps is totally a reference. /s dude, not everything is a reference. a picture can be a reference. in this case showing teeth is a reference to suarez biting a guy. and saying a picture isn't a reference unless it adds meaning to the conversation, you realize that a lot of references don't add any meaning to the conversation, right? so that's total bull shit.

If the top comment in this thread counts two references, not three, perhaps you don't GET references....

A reference, like a meme, needs to be something that most (not all) others would instantly "GET" when they see it. You don't get references as a concept if you think a pic, like a selfie, constitutes a reference.

oh my god, you're egotistical. just because you have a certain opinion, doesn't mean everyone shares that opinion with you. you don't get to decide other peoples views on things. just because you think a picture isn't a reference, doesn't mean it's not a reference.

The fact that you don't understand the concept (yet stubbornly insist that you do) implies nothing about me.
