MEME

Lois from Family Guy Meme

This meme is supposed to be funny and also represent the theme of it being a meta-meme. The meme is supposed to be very relatable because we all have that friend who sends us way too many memes. This also makes it a meta meme because it comments on meme society and culture. There is the underlying tone that sending memes is like a drug and how, in meme culture, it may be uncontrollable. Like drugs, this could take up valuable time when they could be doing something more productive with their time.

I chose this meme because I really like Family Guy, and I think the funniest memes come from it. I was caught between this and a meme from The Office because they have so many meme-able images. Also, I went into this project wanting to comment on the overuse of memes, and when I found this image of drugs, it seemed like the perfect thing to compare it to. The intended message here is to encourage people not to be on their phones so much because it can turn into an addiction. It can also be a funny joke that someone can send to that friend who sends too many memes; maybe they will get the hint.
