If you are looking for an analysis of MEME's that were most popular last year, well, MooPig Department of MEME has no such statement. In fact we are just catching on to the whole idea. This coming to light by way of one of our editor's sixteen year old son's habit of resolving issues through MEME's.
MEME's are not very well defined, but they are like "Google images." You can page through them for hours and giggle. How any one Meme migrates to a billion views, again that is mysterious. It is not Darwinian, nor Freudian, and plainly not stereotypical.
As a teaching tool, if teachers could harness the MEME, and not be the subject of one their selves, one could influence the minds of millions.
Of course it will eventually have to become an advertising tool, and that will pay someone's bills. At present it is in its peak of creepy, clandestine, surreal Internet stuff for your viewing pleasure. It is a mind map of some degree of alpha wave secularism.
What, me worry?

Thank you, and now I know what a meme is; it isn't in the dictionary. I tried to look it up before. Gangnam said in interviews that his lyrics are anti-American, but so is everybody, so let's dance the last dance let's dance the last dance let's dance the last dance TOOOOONIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT. Cause when he's bad, he's so so baaaaaadddd, and (anti-American). So let's dance...
