Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

wait, memes are not supposed to be funny?!
most of them I found funny, except the one with Mick Jagger. 




My memes are dramatic re-enactments of long running arguments I've had on this site.

The term came from Richard Dawkins from his book The Selfish Gene. It's based on the word mimetic, so it implies imitation and representation.

It's a cultural, and genetic, transmission that gets duplicated and modified. They spread rather like a virus.

Memes are nothing new, but it took on certain forms across the web. The old Killroy was here thing was a meme.

Probably the most important book I read after on the origin of species...but I cant create a funny picture meme, I am not nearly artistic enough...

Memes are Memes. They don't have any other defining attributes, not political, informative or humourous. They are what they are.
