Memes, glorious memes!

Haven't seen a memes thread for a while! Hope these upload. Feel free to add any you've seen.

I'm not sure if I have the right meaning of "memes" anymore. To me, a meme is an internet joke that stays as an in-joke for a while then suddenly it goes viral.

• Hampsterdance
• Nyan Cat
• Sound boards
• Matilda Challenge
• Harlem Shake
• Gangnam Style
• Badger Badger Badger
• Myan calendar doomsday of 2012

So those are memes that hung around for quite a while.

In this thread, I accept that Gaston is a meme! Also, covid / corona / coronavirus will become one of the longest-standing memes of all time. I don't think the rest on this thread will be as long-standing. They're more like image macros but they're still funny :-) I just think the word "meme" is over-used nowadays.

These are recent memes (because they're long-standing):

• The Wellerman / sea shanties
• Greta Thunberg
• Donald Trump

Most stuff you see on Tik Tok will fade into obscurity, but the Wellerman is a good example of something that became long-standing.

Thank you for accepting Gaston.

Maybe not traditional memes but these have all made me smile recently.
