What a great night at the 3rd Annual Hallowmeme Party! Thanks everyone for coming and for putting such thought and effort into your amazing costumes.
Check out loads of pics via Slacktory, BuzzFeed and Forced Meme Productions (we’ll have a real website someday), and Random Night Out.

If I were anywhere near SF, I’d totally check this out. Always neat to hear about meme culture in other countries and to remember how these trends are truly international.
(And oh look! Jamie Dubs!)
Rage comics, animated GIFs, Nyan Cat, and other forms of online visual culture get the respect they deserve in “Off Book” from PBS Arts. Researchers, artists, and thinkers from BuzzFeed, Know Your Meme, MemeFactory, Dump.fm, and Morningside Analytics share their views on how Internet Memes impact the world.
My friends know about memes, humanity and other amazing things.
Great video! (admittedly, this is my favorite part)

I just posted a serious, no-bullshit, “how to go viral” presentation on BuzzFeed, complete with some problems that arise from losing control of the truly viral stuff. To see the whole thing, you’ll have to go here.
Very interesting study, Chris!
The 50 Best “Deal With It” GIFs
Don’t want to watch all of these? (Sunglasses drop). Deal with it.
This is very important!
Def one of my very favorite memes.
Taiwanese Animators Parody Know Your Meme Video
Seriously. This is fantastic. I’m done.
At KYM, we had certain distinguishable tropes and features that were used in each episode, including:
- internet scientists wearing lab coats
- meme math
- scientific experiments on each other and the meme
- historical background and other examples of pre-dating memes
The NMA clearly liked what they saw ;)
What an honor. Congrats, guys!
