I pronounce it "dog-eh". There was a video game I played where there was someone with a title of "doge" pronounce "do-wj" (like "dojo" without the "o" on the end).
So whenever I see "doge" I think of it like some kind of title, like a sultan.

Correctly. Doges were rulers of medieval/renaissance Venice.

Related: I cannot understand how these...'memes' are..pervading the atmosphere. Or how it seems humorous. Mayhap, I'm missing a beat in the rhythm of the minds of many.

Memes as they are in modern parlance have been popular for a very, very long time. "Kilroy was here" was a meme back in World War 2. As for internet memes, 9000!!!!!!!!! Nine Thousand!!!!!!!!! went memetic in 2006. All Your Base was around the turn of the millennium. Pwn is such an old meme that it's become English.

Well, you seem to take everything always seriously . So you not understanding memes doesn't really surprise me. You're not missing much anyway...

I usually don't have a problem with memes, but for some reason I wish that doge would go die in a hole. It irritates me immensely and I'm not sure why :X

When I see Doge I think of Machiavelli the Prince.  Anyone remember that game?

I actually like the doge meme, because it has made people accustomed to me being able to increase my economy of words effectively.

Instead of "I am irritated by you" it is now just "much annoy" and they get the message.

[Mictlantecuhtli]

I just like saying Doge.
