I thought that said "Maine" when I first glanced at the headline.

Good jorb medius.

What would the world do without its daily quota of platitudinous bilge from some celebrity?

Well they do say knowing is half the battle.

Just because it has been around for twenty years does not mean it was a meme for 20 years. Just thought I would point out the obvious failure in the headline.

"Historically, the notion of a unit of social evolution, and a similar term (from Greek mneme, "memory"), first appeared in 1904 in a work by the German Lamarckist biologist Richard Semon titled Die Mnemischen Empfindungen in ihren Beziehungen zu den Originalempfindungen (loosely translatable as "Memory-feelings in relation to original feelings"). According to the OED, the word mneme appears in English in 1921 in L. Simon's translation of Semon's book: The Mneme.[7]

The word meme originated with Dawkins' 1976 book The Selfish Gene. To emphasize commonality with genes, Dawkins coined the term "meme" by shortening "mimeme", which derives from the Greek word mimema ("something imitated").[8]"

So, now I know.

Wow its 20 years old!?

/the more you know...

You had a tough day at the office, so you come home, make yourself some dinner, smother your kids, pop in a movie, maybe have a drink. It's fun right? Wrong. Don't smother your kids.

Shwing!

That's not a meme.

<a href="http://xspblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/longcat3.jpg">This is a meme </a>

Hey Fark, stop pressing buttons for me, really.

I can do it.

I expected a parade of dead Fark memes.

clearly not. You must be a married man. Most boobies are sore and men arnt allowed to touch. At least when refering to the wife's.

/most that is, my wife loved it when I played with em
//well, ex-wife

You know, every time I see a "The More You Know" PSA, I can't stop staring at the actor(s) in them, and wonder to myself, "Did they get pulled over for a DWI, or get caught soliciting a prostitute? What did they do that got them sentenced to this Multimedia Community Service?"

medius: I know nothing about the Boobies.

I don't get it

carniemechanic: So, now I know.

Filter pwned. That's all you need to know.

My favorite of the old Conan O'Brien parodies was with Max saying, " Remember, not every relationship has to end in violence."

If TMYK has been around for 20 years, I'm pretty sure it should now be called The Less You Know.

Also, around 2005 or 2006, Fark cliches went from being referred to as cliches, and instead, as memes. Any old time farkers remember this? Everyone got all Dawkins up in here to where you can't even call the cliches cliches.

every now and then a meme is born, and for no apparent reason either
