Ideas?
My words are backed with nuclear weapons.

The problem with manufacturing a meme is that we've become resistant to viral marketing over the years.

this thrade has changed the way i view life forevar and will go down in Poly history as one of the greatest contributions to the Poly OTF in the 11 years this site has been active.

I, for one, thank Japher for the incredible effort it must have taken to dig deep within himself to produce such a fine specimen of a thrade, and the countless hours taken to do so.

But the question remain.
Can we intelligently design a new Meme?

They're going to. It was in a commercial for the upcoming season. I was like "did I hear that clearly clear"?

You don't need to be big to be heard. You can experiment in certain RL situations where information is being shared freely; people talking at restaurants, a discussion on public transportation, etc. Mention something, anything, and then stop and listen and see if some else brings it up.

I was in class a few weeks back and we had to discuss the right to rescue laws in small groups. I mentioned that if you took the law to extremes you'd have the ending to Seinfeld. We then fell into other conversation and I later heard another group talking about Seinfeld, and another, and another... I seriously doubt those douches think on my wavelength, which isn't higher, just stranger.

point to ozzy, if SNL is mining apolyton for comedy, and SNL is no longer relevant, does that mean that 'poly is no longer relavant?

Go, Mike! These conversational memes seem to have a life of their own.

I don't think it was... was.

MRT, where have you been?

The Kanye West meme is sweeping. This is when someone like Pepsi needs to grab hold and ride the wave.

I think this phenomena is similar to the Xzibit "yo dawg" and the Paris Hilton "that's hot" meme, in that it's something incredibly stupid that has no barring on anything whatsoever, so it's fun to make fun of.
