Garrulous Glaahk Dark Sniper Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Congratulations, you have discover an overrated meme from Dragon Ball Z. Should vegeta give you a party at your home.

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 In this case, it's not just an internet meme. It's a wider internet meme being made subservient to the local memes of Spiderweb. We revel in our memetic superiority, at least in our tiny corner of the virtual world. —Alorael, who's virtually certain of his memeticity.

Easygoing Eyebeast Goldengirl Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 We revel in our memetic superiority, at least in our tiny corner of the virtual world. Given Richard Dawkins' original definition of a meme as a self-replicating unit of culture, can we really call any meme successful if it is limited to a tiny corner of the virtual world, such as exemplified by the Spiderweb community?

Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Given Richard Dawkins' original definition of a meme as a self-replicating unit of culture, can we really call any meme successful if it is limited to a tiny corner of the virtual world, such as exemplified by the Spiderweb community? As long as it continues to successfully replicate in that tiny corner, why not? Specialization is a good way to ensure survival in a stable environment, and Spiderweb doesn't seem likely to disappear any time soon. Dikiyoba isn't sure what the meme equivalent for mass extinctions are, though. Or whether it really makes any sense at all to compare bits of culture to DNA.

Dikiyoba isn't sure what the meme equivalent for mass extinctions are, though. Or whether it really makes any sense at all to compare bits of culture to DNA. There are successful island species that occupy only one tiny island. Remember, evolution doesn't have a strategy or even a plan. It just happens. Success is still existing and failure is ceasing to exist. Mass extinction is probably most similar to a particular meme pool drying up. If Spiderweb ceased to exist and its servers closed down it would be bad news for our memes. Some would persist for a while on satellites, but only the hardiest would be carried onto new boards. —Alorael, who doesn't think it's a very accurate comparison to try to liken ideas to genes. Still, it does convey some interesting ideas by analogy. It works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
