I’m wondering: do people just like memes or are they being forced to use them to talk about relevant topics?

Wouldn’t it be better to have more serious threads and less memes that hint at political/news arguments?

    I asked a simple question

    Heh. So, there’s this Saturday Night Live skit from 1997:

    https://youtu.be/OMNaTApbo8E?t=130

    Harry Caray: “Hey, if you were a hotdog, and you were starving, would you eat yourself?”

    Host: “What?”

    Harry Caray: “I know I would. First I’d smother myself in brown mustard and relish. I’d be so delicious. So would you?”

    Host: “I don’t know.”

    Harry Caray: “Don’t jerk me around, Norm. It’s a simple question. A baby could answer it. If you were a hotdog and you were starving, would you eat yourself?”
