Umm meme images meet that definition perfectly. "594 would have prevented that" is a meme. Putting those same words on a picture of a disaster area is a meme. Michael Jackson eating popcorn is a meme... if you don't identify with a meme image, then it's probably not meant for your particular type of audience. Just because you were able to cite a couple of examples of random pictures with words on them that do fit the traditional meme definition does not mean that all random pictures with words on them are memes. |

Such observation. Many words. Much misconception. Wow. A random image with words isn't a meme. But an image with words can be a meme image. Does that help? I'm mobile, otherwise I'd reply with nothing but memes. _________________ "I won't insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said." - William Buckley, Jr. "...steam, artillery and revolvers give to civilized man an irresistible power." -Perry Collins |

I'll split this up into a few different posts, but... Here you go, ya fucks. In no particular order

 This next one is a personal favorite  And this one can be applied liberally to a lot of threads here   _________________ "If it doesn't work, the proper sequence of tools is duct tape->screwdriver->hammer->shotgun.

  Another one that can be used quite often here (despite it's wording geared towards Facebook)  _________________ "If it doesn't work, the proper sequence of tools is duct tape->screwdriver->hammer->shotgun. If none of that fixes it, it wasn't meant to work in the first place." I am free because I say I am. My freedom is not dependent on any government benefit or piece of legislation.

 And, in conclusion  This was just a sampling of what I have accrued..... _________________ "If it doesn't work, the proper sequence of tools is duct tape->screwdriver->hammer->shotgun.
