Question : What are “memes” ?
January 19, 2014 at 1:14 pm #133150A favorite Meme and Gif thread?
I'm always up for a good old fashioned meme and gif thread Ily but sadly this forum may not be quite up to speed with memes. :
Case in point *points to my ol' friend Rukya*
I'll use the wiki definition of internet memes
“An Internet meme (/ˈmiːm/ MEEM) is an idea, style or action which spreads, often as mimicry, from person to person via the Internet, as with imitating the concept.[1] Some notable examples include posting a photo of people in public places lying down planking and uploading a short video of people dancing to the Harlem Shake.[2]
A meme can be considered a mimicked theme, including simple phrases or gestures. An Internet meme may take the form of an image, hyperlink, video, picture, website, or hashtag. It may be just a word or phrase, including an intentional misspelling. These small movements tend to spread from person to person via social networks, blogs, direct email, or news sources. They may relate to various existing Internet cultures or subcultures, often created or spread on sites such as 4chan, Reddit and numerous others in our time, or by Usenet boards and other such early-internet communications facilities. Fads and sensations tend to grow rapidly on the Internet, because the instant communication facilitates word-of-mouth transmission.”
One of my all time favorite memes I use in forums is the “Sad Keanu meme'. The original images shows Keanu Reeves sitting by himself, staring out into nothing. Some took the 'Sad Keanu' image and Photoshopped him into situations meant to cheer him up, or to add him in backdrops that further heighten his depressed lonely state (maybe him on the moon by himself).

Simply put, its a picture with a funny caption, photoshop, or something weird/funny going on.

January 20, 2014 at 3:10 am #133155( '-') You should've made an entire thread dedicated to your 100th post Ily. But congrats. Business Cat memes to celebrate.
And a Happy Keanu meme.

Haha, thanks, but I don't think 100 is a big deal. Maybe for 250 or 500 I'll make a post
I wonder what happens if people yell back at him…

January 21, 2014 at 2:48 am #133159We should make a poll just to decide the best Ramsey meme xD
January 21, 2014 at 1:34 pm #133160As long as it gives me an excuse to spam Ramsay memes, I'm all for it Ily. Btw, that Fresh Prince reference one was deaf.( '-')
