MEMES

Here are several memes that I think relates to my website very well!

Each of these memes are related to my website because all of them are related to Gaming! Wooloo is one of the first few Pokemon to come out in the new game they released, Sword & Shield. Everyone found the Pokemon so adorable that it turned into this really funny meme where they put captions on it with its face everywhere on twitter!
The second one is something very well known, twitch emotes. If you don’t know, Twitch is a popular streaming website where gamers can stream and interact with people. On the right side of each stream is a chatbox, and for the longest time, people would just spam the Kappa emote, shown above, in everyones stream to be “Funny”.
Last one is VideoGameDunkey. He is most known for his League of Legends videos, but he does several other games as well. He is well known for his humor and his silly playstyle that still kind of works? He still does really well even though he just sounds like he is fooling around.

Davison tells us that there are three components in each meme, The manifestation, the behavior, and the ideal. He mentions that “The manifestation of a meme is its observable, external phenomena. The behavior of a meme is the action taken by an individual in service of the meme, and the ideal of a meme is the concept or idea conveyed.” (Davison 2012).

All these memes have something similar to them, other than them being gaming memes. All three of them convey this manifestation of “troll” like behavior that people nowadays find funny. People would caption things, even if they don’t mean anything, and it ends up being funny.

The behavior I would say is how often these were used. I think these wouldn’t be that funny, but people eventually found it funny because of repetitively people used them and how often people saw it on their timeline.

The idea would basically be that ff people see these enough, they end up becoming funny and used several times that people just catch on. That’s the idea that is conveyed in these memes. Troll like content that aged well basically.

The specific manifestation could definitely relate to my audience in a way where if I do something that a small group of audience I have found funny, and they share this certain image of me or something I said around and eventually catches on outside of that friend group, it can become this meme. Anything can go viral nowadays, most of them you least expect. The troll like behavior that my audience can possibly make, like what most gamers do, is what relates it to them.
