A Meme is a comic, really. Pictures and words put together to get some kind of point across.
It's a fascinating phenomenon. I'm tempted to try to explain what they are, but the meme up top has reminded me not to attempt that.
Seeing them, whether I understand ...

When heroes fail… Hey, why would you ever want a hero to fail? Well there are a lot of reasons and listening to this Quackcast will tell you why, but the quick version is that you don't want your hero to be a perfect Mary-Sue sort of character ...
The Impracticality of Being Practical

The Businessman, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
I have a certain level of disdain for people who believe that comics and art in general are merely hobbies. When I was much younger and on the receiving end of advice from many well-meaning grown-ups, the word “practical” and the phrase ...

Rules. Yeah… Oh boy.
Well fine, we ain't got to call it “rules”; we can think of it as a set ...
