Know your memes.

Haven't heard the Double Rainbow Song? Not attending Kate's party? Badger, badger, mushroom mushroom? O RLY? YA RLY.

Just in case you're experiencing anxiety about missing out on the latest meme, I thought I'd remind you of the easy option: http://knowyourmeme.com/

It pretty much takes all the fun- well, maybe only about 78% of the fun- out of memes by detailing all the latest ones nobody else has probably even heard of yet (or, potentially, ever will) thus allowing you to go freely around the internets trying to be the First to distribute said memes. Which nobody will then understand until weeks later. I didn't recognize any of the memes featured on this site, but have taken it upon myself to propagate the memephrase "Very Erotic, Very Violent" I spotted.

I suspect most people are exposed to memes (or what random people think are memes, but nobody else has heard of) and just don't realize. So, the next time someone says something completely bizarre on a Youtube comment thread, instead of posting a long, elaborate, and abusive reply, just assume it's a meme/they're a troll/both. It saves a lot of time and effort. Plus if you see it repeated on another thread, you can feel really smart and up to date.
