Yes. That's why in "best of" type posts, the real original poster is the OOP

Object-oriented Programming? MY KIND OF PEOPLE!

If you're down with OOP, you're down with me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I use OOP for the guy in the screenshot. Like for example a tweet isn't a repost (unless it's reposted obviously) but OOP would be the guy who posted the tweet on Twitter and not the first who posted the screenshot on lemmy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Ah yes, as in "And I OOP!"

Be the change you want to see

It's like creating a riddle.

Sure, it could be fun in its own right, but it loses its magic and you can never experience it the same way as if someone else created it.

[–] cheddar 4 points 2 months ago

No, I like to miss stuff. I like to feel nostalgia, misery, and despair.

Reposter is still OP, as they are the original poster of this thread

Creator of the OC is OOP, Original-OP, as they were the original poster of the OC

[–] cheddar 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What if the creator of the OC didn't post their C? Let's say, I paid an artist for some art and then published it online. I'd be the OP, but the creator will never be the OOP.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That means you're not down with OOP.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago
[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You down with OPP?

Yeah, you know me.

I'm down with OPP.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I’m upset that I had this same thought. Even my thoughts have an OOP.

Ontario Provincial Police?

On the internet, everything is a repost. We simply choose to have faith that an OP once walked this Earth, drizzling his seeds of thought all across the digital landscape. Praise be OP.

We simply choose to have faith that an OP once walked this Earth,

That's a fair point in the age of generative AI.

Than its just a P

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Ugh, I want to say old internet things, but I kinda like this place and don't wanna get banned :,(

Wtf is OC? I've never known what it is.

The O.C. is an American teen drama television series created by Josh Schwartz that originally aired on the Fox network in the United States from August 5, 2003, to February 22, 2007, running a total of four seasons.

The OCs, (aka Osees, the Oh Sees, the O.C.s) are a lo-fi psych garage rock band with over a dozen albums. Their sound is unique, but could best be compared to other psychedelic and punk-influenced bands like Witch and Ty Segal.

Thank you. Isn't supposed to be OP for original post?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago

OP is usually "original poster", the one that started the thread

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

OC can be photos that OP took or other items that are "original" to OP.

Versus, OP, just taking other content from across the Web and posting it here.

My cat photos are definitely OC.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They are oc to me, other's cat

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Yup, I'm her's.

We could start calling them Current Poster.
