Some memes are easy, some memes need an explanation. Fortunately this one comes with context - highly convenient. Perhaps we should be pushing for legislation to make this mandatory. Big Meme has had free reign for too long

If you've seen it but didn't make it, it has spread

That's true. This IS now a meme.

What grinds my gears is when people say "I made this meme" when first sharing their image macro. It's not a meme and it might never be one. Or it could be huge.

You're right. Maybe there ought to be a term for an attempt at a meme. Maybe a "proto meme"?

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
