    Counterpoint: my dad sent me a cheezburger meme yesterday and I only need to go back a couple weeks to find rage comics memes in my group chats. I’m honestly surprised at how long memes can stay relevant; when they first started being called memes, it felt like they could only have a lifespan of a few weeks (though that’s basically the definition of survivorship bias).

      I recently realised the Slowpoke/Internet Explorer meme template is never going to die.
