I gather most of these are done by the same guy so if you decide on a name you might want to tell him.

@Cirrus Light  
my take, we can’t make this happen any faster. I really want to hide these damn images from my feed…
 
but anyway, as for a tag I’d say we need one that’s much more encompassing than this, for images that are of an equally similar nature as these, as opposed to making a lot more unnecessary tags around those as well sometime in the future.
 
a few examples

>>1261591s (deleted)  
>>1261415s (deleted)
 
these all seem to share one common theme among each other, which is why they annoy me, they use ponies to retell life experiences, or negative ones to be exact. If we can make a tag fitting all these pony reaction to real life annoyances, that’s what would be best for these kinds of image macros.
 
as for if that’ll happen, I’m hoping it will.

@Mildgyth  
Yeah, when I started typing the response there were zero replies. Hence my edit message.

IMO more than “obligatory pony” they should be “exploitable meme”.
 
And I think these are called TFW (“that/the feel[ing] when”) image macros.

I’ve noticed a lot of these floating around, recently:
 

 
>>1283032t (deleted)
 
>>1282998t (deleted)
 
>>1279784t (deleted)
 

 
>>1276535t (deleted)
 
And many more. So, not sure exactly how to define it… It usually describes some situation that arises, and your response to it, depicting a pony reaction image.
 
So…
 
Short definition: A pony reaction image put to a real life occurrence.  
Long definition: A macro that uses a pony reaction image to describe a reaction to a particular real-world situation.
 

 
There’s just so many of these that are so similar that it seems useful to give them their own tag, though most already fall under “obligatory pony”

gams up to here => leg focus
 
Since the gams one seems to be focused on legs (and ‘dem legs’ is already aliased to leg focus).

@Marker
 
Done.

oc:pyrelight -> balefire phoenix

@Mildgyth  
‘Waves’ might help separate it from people who would otherwise tag ‘wave’ to refer to waving, like was apparently done before.

@Solitude  

 
No but seriously pretty much. You can come in here to throw ideas around before creating a thread once you have a clear proposition for example, see what other users think. Also it’s a good way to publicize a new tag you think is useful, the more people know about it, the best it is tagging wise.

@saby
 
But that’s more or less what i decided, except for the “wave (gesture)” thing. besides, i alrady removed all waving from wave, and the question now is to which direction do the waves<=>wave alias.

@Keith Mowz  
@Vinyl Fluff  
Eeyup. Aliases, implications, descriptions, nametag color and such get their separate thread. This thread is more for simple discussion. _{Inb4 a mod comes tell me I’m wrong.}

 
Quite a few images within “wave” are water undulations!
 
Counter-suggestion: leave “wave” as is, create “wave (gesture)” as pre-emptive alias for “waving”.

@Dragonpone
 
Or the other way; i’m not sure of which.

Speaking of which, should ‘waves’ be aliased into ‘wave’ then?  
waves -> wave

@Mildgyth  
Oh, sorry. I assumed so since some of the images I saw tagged with ‘wave’ were the same as ‘waving’, thanks for cleaning up the ‘wave’ tag.

@Dragonpone
 
No. they are both completely different things:
 
Waving:
 

 
Wave:
 

wave -> waving

@Ciaran  
Okay, good to know.

Well, if someone asks for your “papers”, that’s different than if someone wants a paper. But I don’t know if that distinction is useful her in this dataset.

@Ciaran  
Ahhh.  
And now that I know what it is…How dare you make such a reference! How juvenile an anime! What kind of code name is “The Paper” anyway?! blah blah _{blah blah ^{blah blah}}
 
And thanks, I’ve noticed it before but didn’t know if it was one of those cases where it actually is necessary to have both tags.

Zebra Domination  
Images specifically depicting ‘zebra supremacy’; cuckolding, impregnating, or racially abusing non-zebras.  
Example; >>1205258

Sorry :) Read Or Die is an anime where the main superhero is a librarian and temp teacher who’s code name is “The Paper”. It’s all James Bond SuperMan but Librarian and books.
 
Now I can’t see the word “Paper” without thinking about it.
 
PS: I think your suggestion is a good one.

@Ciaran  

 
I swear, if I had any clue what you referenced or why I would so make an over-dramatic faux angry rant as to the fact that you referenced it!  
:p

Sorry, can’t resist:
