My own homework

Hello Meme-crunchers!

I've spent most of the last two weeks trying to answer the question posed during our first session together: what is my favourite meme?

I have two fairly recent ones that never fail to tickle me. And I use the term fairly recent as the world of online memetic shenanigans moves at such a blistering pace, what's topical today can seem very dated tomorrow. As I'm sure you are all aware. And not that there's anything wrong with that.

The first one is Two Angry Men, a series of stills from a reality TV show called American Chopper.


The second is anything featuring Joe Biden, the US's meme-in-chief.


 Bonus thoughts: what are your favourite memes? Why? What do you consider as qualifying as a meme in the first place?
