Well, everyone knows that Black Ice is dangerous.

Does engrish really apply for these "purposefully poorly typed English" memes?

She also has a little problem when it comes to how to spell, in at least two meanings of the word it seems.

Why not?

Because, would you say "I CAN HAS CHEESEBURGER" Cat Macros apply for it as well?

Why is 'tanned cirno" a tag

Because it became a big enough meme to get one.

Well, one must keep in mind that just because Black Ice looks different than White Ice, it doesn't make it any more dangerous.

Also, one must remember how hard it is for Black Ice to survive, what with the authorities trying to destroy it with the snowplows and the salt trucks, but Black Ice perseveres!

it's not engrish. it's a meme.

Because Zun referred to her as such in the HFIFS character select screen.

Addendum: Also, I agree with the sentiment that intentionally misspelled English words, done by a native English speaker for the sake of a meme, should not get the Engrish tag.

Not sure if understand.
Suit yourself. Don't really care.

Seems like the whole thing's blown over already but from what little I know "engrish" has almost always been for actual typos and uh 'unintentional' mistakes.

Though in that case it'd still be easier to put everything under engrish I guess since we're supposed to tag what we see and not what we know and memes themselves are pretty contextual.

Meh, I dunno. I was just making conversation.
