As “every day” and perhaps “dumb” as they might seem, memes are an all-in-all fascinating concept. Simply put, it’s an element of culture, usually a thing with some meaning attached to it, that gets passed from person to person like a viral infection. The internet has simply allowed this to happen a lot faster.
At the same time, the ability to create and spread memes so quickly also contributes to their lack of longevity. Most memes come and go in a matter of months if not weeks, as formats and topics change and evolve.
I worked as a temp for a temporary company that the insurance outsourced it paperwork to. I was just regular admin, but the of the workers who talked to the doctors about claims informed me that the instructions that came down the line from the insurance company were, “deny, deny, deny, deny, until the doctors screams some more, does a c**p-load more of paperwork, and then maybe approve it.” I kid you not. If you still think universal healthcare is a bad idea, please don’t get seriously ill.
Often, memes are a classic way to convey in-jokes in a community. After all, most professions, areas, fandoms, and demographics all have meme pages set up specifically for their own use. Remember, a core component of memes are the common points of reference, that allow most people to get the necessary information out of what often amounts to an image and a little bit of text.
The idea of a meme as a sort of virus is actually quite old. Indeed, the very word, at least as we know it today, comes from Richard Dawkins's 1976 book “The Selfish Gene.” He was arguing about aspects of culture that are passed around, mutating and changing, but keeping a recognizable form. But it would only be around the time of the internet when memes truly took off.
It always annoys me that we can sleep wrong. Seriously, body, how is that so difficult?
After all, with digital tools, now everyone can pass around and create memes. While in the past, access to broadcasting tools and media was highly limited, now, with the right moves, anyone can go viral from the comfort of their bedrooms. This has created a sort of meme golden age, where there is new content being created daily.
I'm 54, I read this, and got really offended, put on my thinking hat, and remembered that I take a nap after lunch most days. But at forty I still went out partying straight from work, no nap needed, just two days of recovering from being out late:)
I'm 49 and I nap almost every day. On the weekends I sleep until noon to make up for not napping. :)

I've learned 2 things from my cats. 1: the value of a good stretch, and 2: the value of a good nap!!!
I am lucky enough to live somewhere with great public transport and moved to the suburbs before having kids, so if I meet up with my friends in town, I can have a wee nap on the U-Bahn on the way in. 30 minutes later, refreshed and ready to party!
So excited. I had tickets to a concert I'd been dying to see. Snuggled down for my mid-life, prep-nap, then got gussied up for the big night out. My now ex- decides they don't want to go after all, and was shocked that I intended to go anyway. Ah hell no, I'm not wasting a nap to stay up with you.
I just turned 50, and I don't even know what a nap is. I can't remember the last time I took one. I don't sleep at night. I stay up later than my sons, who are in their 20s. This stereotype irritates me because it's very wrong. Give me 30 years and my answer might change. 😂
I'm 58 and an insomniac and naps I never get the luck to have. It irritates me too!

It's a vicious cycle really, but curious how they got this photo of me?
Maybe they have PTSD from an incident involving a Great Dane coming into their house and eating the leftover Taco Bell that was on the table. Said Great Dane then proceeded to bark very loudly and wake up the OP, who was taking a nap. They thought that there was some sort of wild animal in the house, so they hid under the covers. The dog then left and OP checked the security cameras to see what it was. The OP then got angry because they were saving that Taco Bell for later. Since that day, they have never liked dogs.
We did just that for our 9 year old Shih Tzu. 2 years later, she’s happier and has more pep in her step.
Still have no idea, but hey, no job interview has asked me how many days are in August. I think I’m ok for now.
No, work on your s**t, the other person doesn't have to suffer because you called it
I'm chubby and it's great. I actually look curvy in swimsuits
Please don't, I'm already having a tough time trying to figure out what the kids are saying these days, as it is.
