    Yeah, first memes were my boomer uncle emailing my boomer dad video attachments. I remember a parody of the Budweiser wassup thing with orthodox Jews delivering whitefish.

      Memes like Kilroy was here and that fancy S everyone drew in grade school were around before the internet.

      Meme theory is actually really interesting. The Internet just supercharged how fast new memes can propagate.
