The classic Leeroy Jenkins clip from WOW and many other hilariously fabulous ways to waste your time can be found by the ever so bored and idle though out offices world wide by visiting fun websites like YouTube, assuming that “big brother” has not restricted your access to such amazing sites… These types of clips, also famously noted “Leave Brittney Alone, Surprised Kitty and Double Rainbow, have come to be know as “meme’s” (pronounced like beam only with an m). A meme has thus come to be a concept that spreads swiftly through the internet. Despite that loose definition, a meme really has to be a viral concept which people can apply to different areas, otherwise it is just a viral clip/concept…
But enough about the technicalities, Rocketboom employs a group of scientists to create wonderful videos that log the fascinating memes and catalog them through the website Know Your Meme.com. Just recently NPR had a guest on to discuss the ever controversial yet ever amusing meme, read more here.
I don’t know about you, but regardless of what anyone says, I think that they are a pretty awesome pastime, though perhaps making you a little dummer for doing so, I mean what else are you going to do, read a book?!? Ppfffft! There is just something fascinating about staring into the lives of those other crazy people in our species. If you have a favorite meme, feel free to pass it along, I am sure we could all us a good laugh. :-D
