Memes are funny things. One minute you’re a sensible, thinking being writing a post on the Internet, next minute you’re on teh interwebs spouting all sorts of nonsensical junk. It’s really weird, nobody sits down and says “OK, this is a new meme, you can reply to anything with all your base… and if you feel like it, the form I iz in ur <noun> <verb>ing ur <other noun>“. We just sort of vacuum them up from each other. Wouldn’t it be great if actual, real information was transmitted in the same way?
Seems even the real world of printed text isn’t immune, as this story from the Houston Chronical of all places shows.  It’s amusing watching someone attempt to report on Internet culture, unless you visit several hundred message boards a day it just doesn’t make sense :) It’s like trying to explain a Monty Python film to someone who’s never heard of them - it just doesn’t work.

I’m off to pay a deposit on my new house now. Or is that I is in ur shopz payin’ my depositz, can I has keys pleez? Damn you Internet ;)
