‘I could spend all day providing usage examples’
If you had wings you ‘could’ fly.
I see ‘Reeeee,’ used all the time. What I personally observe cuts completely against the usage you’re pushing. I have no idea why it means so much to you to make that definition stick. It’s not going to work with me because I’ll believe what I see over what you tell me to believe.
Cool. Good luck with that. Reread this thread to see yourself come out of the woodwork to “correct” my comment to someone else.
Also, feel free to run a search of T_D posts for reeeeee, with varied amounts of e’s, to see a multitude of usage that completely contradicts your obsession with correcting me. :)
Since I first posted to you, I’ve come across multiple usages of ‘reeee,’ in my online browsing. None of them—not one—remotely fit the definition you’re trying to force onto the word. Again, idn why it’s so important for you to play the role of an expert in this area. You’re never going to persuade people whose real life experiences run completely counter to your claims.
You’re absurd. You approached me, to correct me..when I was having a brief conversation with someone else. You are attempting to impose your less than definitive definition on me.
I’ve decided to be helpful, and run a simple search with one of many possible spellings of reeeee, depending on how many e’s you include. This was the multi-page result, which I think will show quite clearly that the vast majority of current usage on reddit (and voat btw) represents a mocking of liberal screaming and crying over things they don’t like.

BTW...Know your meme, is a lagging indicator, which is sometimes unreliable on the ever evolving internet.
Now you’re reduced to flinging silly personal insults. As if that’s an argument. Smh.
I made a comment to you on a thread we were both posting on. Are you trying to turn that into a crime? You’re sure acting as if it is.
Please stop misrepresenting me. I’m not trying to convince you of anything. What I’ve said, explicitly and repeatedly, is that *you* aren’t going to convince *me*. My real life experience runs counter to your claim. Therefore I’m not buying your definition.
Now, stop trying to force it on me. Thank you.
First, where am I flinging insults?
Second, Your very first comment to me was attempting to “educate” me on the correct usage. This is your attempt to convince me that you are correct. You are a hypocrite. That is not an insult, but rather a clear observation.
In closing, here is one more link from today, that has multiple uses by various posters, all speaking for pool reporters that reacted poorly to Trump ME speech.

If you can’t even recognize a personal insult when you make one, I can’t help you.
I added to the discussion. You took my input the way you chose to. But for the record, anyone on a discussion forum can post information. It’s not the sinister activity you suggest, but rather it’s simply the way a discussion forum works.
Please save your links. Since this exchange began, I’ve come across more usages of ‘reeee,’ than I’ve kept track of. None of them were used in accordance with your definition. But please note that I haven’t linked to a single one. I recognize that you’re wedded to your claim regardless. That’s your choice. All I ask is that you stop trying to impose your personal definition onto me. I won’t accept it because it runs counter to my personal experiences.
Bless your heart FRiendo! Good night.
