    By creating a thread about this you're only feeding the meme as users will keep posting the meme, for fun, in spite and because they think it's funny. So keep your honeyed words to yourself!

    I used to ignore it, then I took an arrow and used it for a bow to shoot monsters.

    I used to take comments on the internet seriously,  but then I took an arrow to the knee.
     
    But in all seriousness;  90% of the comments on videos and articles on the internet consist of morons throwing their own feces at each other. Let's enjoy the light-hearted meme that's snicker inducing when done right and eye rolling when done wrong.

    You're really trying to stop a meme by saying 'Guys this is dumb stop doing it'? Do you have any idea how this works? I am frankly a little perturbed.

    If other people find it funny, then let them find it funny. I don't see why it should bother you. Personally I thought it was hilarious and appropriate that it became a meme, after being bombarded by it in-game for who knows how many hours.

    Just remember: if you start to get angry, or panicked, or confused...

    I'm not lying when I say this is the first I've heard of it. Maybe you shouldn't complain about the joke but instead find somewhere else to spend your time on the Internet. After hearing it for the first time it isn't even slightly funny or maybe I just don't get it.

    Take an arrow in the knee is pretty ignorable as far as memes go. I'm shocked FUS RO DAH! is not making more headway outside of YouTube.

    Never seen this meme.

    Wait, is this a new meme? Inventing memes by making up fake memes and then pretending to be sick of them, provoking people into antagonized you by using the fake meme and thereby making it real?

    I was gonna write something here, but then i took an arrow to the knee. Seriously though, few memes make me laugh. I hated the arrow to the knee thing at first, but as time went on i found it to be funnier. Some are actually pretty funny and the sheer scale of those jokes. You can watch a video that's completely unrelated to Skyrim and still find one joke.

    I've not bought Skyrim yet, but I know exactly what you're talking about! It seems to be everywhere, so heaven knows how much I'll be sick of it once I actually play the game. Funnily enough, I was actually thinking of starting my own topic about the whole meme, but then I took an arrow in the knee.

    "Your the one who casts those illusions, eh?"

    "Why don't you conjure me up a nice warm bed?"

    "Ahh, did some one steal your sweet roll?

    "Begone sneak thief!"

    "I used to be an adventurer like you, and then I took an arrow to the knee."

    Bethesda knows that guard comments are always instant memes.

    "<>" was an exceptionally good meme. "Brad leaving for IGN stated as news" isn't as great, but I've used it before.
