I'm waiting for the hipster-era of memes, where people post them ironically.

you must craft a mask constructed of a quail's nest and feathers from a common robin which was birthed on a summer equinox. only then can you see the true nature of a meme's dankness. but choose carefully, for the mask can only be used once, and if the meme contains no dankness, the wearer will be cursed to be forever blind to dank memes, only knowing of memes which are now old and shared by grandparents/coworkers on facebook.

kinda bummed memes have become so mainstream tbh. I remember when only nerds and trolls knew about this shit, now you have multi platinum recording artists using them and soccer moms retweeting them.

If your meme incites this type of response it is very likely that it is quite dank.

I look to the markets, the only rational tool for determining value (measured in dankness here). Is the 52 week trend up, down, or all over the place? What's the dankness to earnings ratio tell me? What's dankness per share of Facebook posts at the moment?  Honestly it's more art than science.

Yeah I think we've lapped the course so they are no longer ironic too.

Wishing for memes to be a little hobby that you can enjoy secretly with your in-the-know friends reminds me a little of #gamergate

I still don't know what gamergate is.

I'm safe when I assume all gamergate people have too much time on their hands right?
