An appropriate card

1. A card played in Cards Against Humanity that sounds like it works and won't get your video demonetized, until you or someone else decided to read too far between the lines. See too appropriate

1b. A card played in Cards Against Humanity that actually works too well, so it doesn't get picked.

2. An excuse that shouldn't work, but it does. Works best in the form of something you might find on a notecard or some similarly sized, stiff, paper-like object

1. Well, the black card is “(Blank) reminds me of my weeaboo days” so an appropriate card is “sitting in my room with the lights out watching unrealistic videos by myself”… wait… that could mean something else…

1b. Well, the black card is “(Blank) reminds me of my weeaboo days” so I’ll play “being a weeaboo”. Wait, “sitting in my room with the lights out watching unrealistic videos by myself” won? I guess I played an appropriate card.

2. So, I was just getting arrested for stealing thousands of dollars of Hasbro games from Toys "R" Us, but I managed to grab the get out of jail free card from one of my new monopoly sets. Take that, racist cops!

Memetic appropriation

Basically cultural appropriation but specifically regarding memes. Memetic appropriation is when somebody says a meme reference but they don't actually understand the context behind the meme and have no idea where the meme originated from. They only say it because everybody else is saying it.

User 1: This joke ain't even funny
User 2: r/wooosh
User 1: Stop memetic appropriating, you didn't even spell the sub right

Cultural appropriation is when someone steals something from a culture that isn't their own. This is not the same as Cultural Appreciation.

Cultural Appropriation

A social construction by sociologists involving an unenforceable non-legally binding property right that doesn't actually exist which infringes on a person's right to extract facts from the public domain in the creation of their own intellectual property.

By creating a work of art, which is your property, which uses the language I natively speak, you are engaging in cultural appropriation, even though you can't copyright a natural language or dialect.
