Spoiler: OffTopicish (click to show/hide)

Know Your Meme (and RocketBoom) isn't an "institute". It's a bunch of retarded opportunists trying to make money out of memes. They are evil and should be exterminated.

So we got monsters above, monsters below, dwarves in the middle and a party in the dining hall. Sounds good to me.
If all else fails, remember one thing:  kittens are delicious, nutritious little goblin-baiters, cavern explorers, and ambush-finders.

I think they're quite funny and informative.

Obviously our differing opinions means that we must argue vehemently about this as if our opinions mattered.

How are they making money? It doesn't cost to sign up (right?) and I don't see any ads on their site.

Oh, I always assumed they were making tons of money off of it and I never actually bothered to look anything up. Guess that speaks a lot about me. But they're evil anyway.

Yes, and I don't see any ads. How curious. Incidentally I checked and there are no ads regardless, though.

There are ads at the bottom & on the right for most pages.

Really, the whole prospect of a meme database seems kind of strange to me. I'm no memeologist (memeitician?) but there's something disconcerting about a website dedicated toward explaining what are effectively little more than in-jokes.

Massive, world-spanning in-jokes.

in-jokes barely ever are.

The Taiwanese prison that has Thriller as its exercise routine was pretty good though.

If they're not funny, why does everyone keep talking about them?  Bad jokes are just funny in a different way.

Because everyone wants to feel cool and relevant, even internet losers.  It's the NSYNC of humor, garbage cynically manufactured for dedicated consumers of garbage.

Somewhere in here, there is irony. Ten points to those who find it.
