   You realise that meme is going to date like bad 80′s hair right? Though the thing about psychic powers is that rick astley can in fact become a powerful song of war, especially when it gets shoved into someone’s head so hard it ends up making them explode.

   These sorts of memes are gonna date like bad hair anyway. Religion and the ones with some content has relied more on their unchanging structure than anything else, so they’ll probably remain quite a while. At least until they lose their value to us.
   They might also change, in which case they’ll probably remain a bit longer, but if they’re going to survive in the long run they’d have to change so much that it wouldn’t be the same chunk of data anyway.

   This is actually the first time you’ve managed to make me upset Warren, damn your eyes. I should probably go read that book you wrote so I can really learn to hate you.

   Ha, I came here to the comments, wondering if anyone else was shocked and irritated by the aforementioned meme. Glad I’m not the only one.
   But it bears mention that this is only the dark side of what Ellis has that brings me back for more. He doesn’t give a piss what we think or want. He puts in what he wants to, and damn the rest. Always being on guard for fan backlash is the kind of thinking that becomes so pervasive in your writing as to move it unnaturally away from your style and content.
   I can’t believe I just defended an All Your Base in the year 2008.

   “Shocked”? “Upset”? Go the fuck outside.

   Boom goes the dynamite.

   That has transcended a ‘meme’, making it perfectly fucking acceptable to use in any walk of life.

   The real joke here is that All Your Base jokes are already as dated as 80s hair metal, so it’s not even ironic anymore. It’s just part of the shared nerd culture experience. Get over yourselves.

   Your missing the real horror here…. a world without bogroll.

   To echo the man himself…

   “Shocked”? “Upset”? I laughed until I peed.

    sure is a lot of fuss over one silly meme.

    I gave it two thumbs up and a smile.
