[QUOTE="Steampunkette, post: 8307371, member: 6796468"] Lemme hit you with an example meme: [IMG]https://64.media.tumblr.com/49e95c9e66a40dd03aebf676126eefad/tumblr_inline_oejzt7CNwm1r4kmbx_500.png[/IMG] There are 7 Memes in this singular meme image. The political compass is often used as a meme. Man door hand hook car door is a meme based off a terrible spoof of a traditional horror story/urban legend. YMCA with Wrong Lyrics is a meme. Take the Breadsticks and Run is a meme based on a girl stuffing breadsticks in her purse at Olive Garden when her date was a jerk. The whole thing is presented in the 4 panel comic arrangement, which is it's own meme. GUN as a random addition to the end of a sentence is a form of shock humor. And the whole thing is laid out so the words fill in the space occupied by characters in the CTRL+ALT+DEL comic "Loss" which is a meme because of how utterly awful it was presented and taken by the comic's fanbase and tangential fanbases. And ARGUABLY combining memes to create a Supermeme is it's OWN meme, bringing us to 8. Can you imagine explaining this to your Boss to try and explain -why- it is funny? Now try it with this one: [IMG]https://64.media.tumblr.com/3afa47a29a8889549485c9760907ade1/tumblr_png9hjTivd1u5ur8e_540.png[/IMG] All the same memes, plus Nickleback, the Distracted Boyfriend Meme, Is this a Pigeon Meme, Grunkle Stan, Galaxy Brain, and Marie Kondo. Allow me to assure you, Tumblr is still not finished with this Memeception. And now that I've said that, a version of the Meme with Leonardo Dicaprio saying "We've gotta go deeper" now exists. WotC would look at this in horror... and Spelljammer would become a straight laced and serious version of what it once was. In 100 years, Memes from this era will be inscrutable hieroglyphics... And I sit in stark horror of what memes are to come. [/QUOTE]
