On this day exactly 10 years ago, a meme was born. I'm not sure exactly which meme, but that's the special thing about memes—new ones are made every day. Every second. Even the dumbest Marvel movie takes years and millions of dollars to create. But the best memes are totally free and only take a few seconds to create. All you need is a funny idea. Some memes might stand out among others, but at the end of the day, memes need each other in order to stay relevant as a medium. Since the humor of memes has a cumulative effect that gets better with repetition and circulation, there will never be a "best" meme or a hierarchy of memes. And that's why memes are so great—because it's impossible to elevate them to something they're not. If you're on the same page, we've got a bunch of acceptable memes for an afternoon scroll.
