Memes.

They’ve always been an integral part of social media, and always will be.

Since we evolved from caveman to modern day human, there has always been an attempt to transmit cultural information and ideas. Modern day folklore is just… memes.

I’m sure there are many more meme templates owned by someone. So, better be safe and not use them.
