    And you have to explain a decade of internet lore just to give the background.

      My wife totally skipped the “lol so random” phase of absurdist internet memes since she didn’t use the internet at the time, so she doesn’t appreciate things like Badger Badger Badger, Charlie the unicorn, the Llama song, animutations, etc.

      It’s useful sometimes though, because sometimes I show her a meme that she ends up loving, and I get to see someone experiencing it for the first time.
