I keep seeing on Facebook that Nick from Zootopia and Eugene from Tangled are the only Disney characters to question why everyone was randomly singing. Do they do this just to get people to comment?

As the comments always point out, Robert from Enchanted question the random singing before those other movies came out

WHEN THE FUCK DID YOU SEE RANDOM MUSICAL NUMBERS IN ZOOTOPIA? There are no random musical numbers in either Zootopia movie. They each end with a concert in which a pop star is singing, that isn’t unusual. At no point is there an inexplicable musical number and at no point does Nick ask why people are singing.
I’m also not sure about the claim that Eugene questions random singing. Who in the hell made such an incorrect meme? Did they watch a different version of Zootopia than I did? Did they base a meme on a dream they had? Did they blatantly make shit up and decide to see who nods along as if it’s factual? Who are all these people clicking the like button as if this is accurate? Are they bots? Or are they people who are extremely easy to implant false memories into? I think I have met people like that. Why do people make and share these things? Is it to annoy people like me?
On Facebook specifically I think it is specifically to get people to comment. It boosts engagement numbers and makes it more likely that the Facebook algorithm will show later posts to a larger audience, giving them a better reach when they try to shill something later. It’s like a corollary to Cunningham’s Law.
It is engagement bait. Block it and move on. Anything else helps them out.
First step is to get off Facebook.
Look at all the people saying that O’Brien traps people in the pattern buffer. Or that Dr. Crusher was a smoker
People don’t care about accuracy to characters, just the fun of shared references
First thing that came to my mind was memes comparing how Linux and Windows kill programs, stating that Windows leaves the program while Linux just kills them immediately. But the reality is that both OSes have ways to ask nicely and to kill immediately. And both usually ask nicely by default.
I hate those memes!
On the other hand, people seem to have the same problems with quantum observation memes where “observation” is usually depicted by someone looking at an experiment, when in reality “observation” means “interaction” (more specifically we actually don’t know exactly what kind of interactions lead to decoherence). Some people seem to hate those memes, but I love them!
