Week From Hell

Xtine Johnes — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 10:19:50 +0000

I moved into yet another new apt this week. My boyfriend and I ran boxes, bags and packages up the stairs to the new place for a couple days getting fragile things like computers, jewelry, etc. I brought my whole occult library and tool kit which is very extensive now. And other things of that nature.

We then had the movers show up to move the large furniture, boxes, etc. The company I used was Movers Not Shakers - they had treated me well when I used them in 2008. Flash forward five years- they tried to work me for a bigger tip after deciding what THEY wanted to take over, I know there were some items there which were not on the list for the estimate but so what? You can't take a few more boxes? The move was only 3 blocks away, and one of the apts was a ground floor apt which takes a lot of the hastle out of it. Now there is more work for me to do, bringing more things over.

While I was in the process of moving, I realized that my car had been towed over two old tickets from Brooklyn. OMG. That hadn't happened to me in a while. So after moving all my stuff and spending the night in my new home trying to organize things, I had to walk miles and take 4 different busses in the cold. I got home with the car and was destroyed, crashed for a couple of hours.

I then woke up and ate, but managed to give myself food poisoning by undercooking these dumplings I had in the freezer. I ended up being out of it all night.

Now there will be a huge snowstorm for the next two days, right after which I have to do an event.

NYC is NOT an easy environmnet to live in!

Internet meme

Tellurik Waves — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 15:16:55 +0000

The term Internet meme ( /'mi?m/ MEEM)[1] is used to describe a concept that spreads via the Internet.[2] The term is a reference to the concept of memes, although the latter concept refers to a much broader category of cultural information. The earliest known usage of the word meme is in the book The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins published in 1976.
DescriptionAn Internet meme is an idea that is propagated through the World Wide Web. The idea may take the form of a hyperlink, video, picture, website, hashtag, or just a word or phrase, such as intentionally misspelling the word "more" as "moar" or "the" as "teh". The meme may spread from person to person via social networks, blogs, direct email, news sources, or other web-based services. An Internet meme may stay the same or may evolve over time, by chance or through commentary, imitations, parody, or by incorporating news accounts about itself. Internet memes can evolve and spread extremely rapidly, sometimes reaching world-wide popularity within a few days. Internet memes usually are formed from some social interaction (Rage comic or reaction faces), pop culture reference (Xzibit in "Yo Dawg" or Bear Grylls in "Better drink my own piss"), or situation people often find themselves in (Socially Awkward Penguin or Futurama Fry / Not Sure If X). Many memes also come from video games (such as the "arrow in the knee" from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim). For researchers it's hard to track down the birthplace of memes due to their viral nature, as well as the high chance of the meme spreading to the major websites nearly instantly.

Their rapid growth and impact has caught the attention of both researchers and industry.[3] Academically, researchers model how they evolve and predict which memes will survive and spread throughout the Web. Commercially, they are used in viral marketing where they are an inexpensive form of mass advertising.

Types and usesPublic relations, advertising, and marketing professionals have embraced Internet memes as a form of viral marketing and guerrilla marketing to create marketing "buzz" for their product or service. The practice of using memes to market products or services is known as memetic marketing.[4] Internet memes are seen as cost-effective, and because they are a (sometimes self-conscious) fad, they are therefore used as a way to create an image of cleverness or trendiness.

Marketers, for example, use Internet memes to create interest in films that would otherwise not generate positive publicity among critics. The 2006 film Snakes on a Plane generated much publicity via this method.[5] Used in the context of public relations, the term would be more of an advertising buzzword than a proper Internet meme, although there is still an implication that the interest in the content is for purposes of trivia, ephemera, or frivolity rather than straightforward advertising and news.[6]

Notable examplesMain article: List of Internet memes
MispronunciationThe term "meme" has been widely mispronounced (/'mi?mi/, sounding like "me me" or sometimes "meh meh" or even mayh-mm) throughout various markets, including online gaming communities, podcasts, radio, and television and internet video.[7] The French word même ("same"), a dynamic word having different meanings depending on usage as an adverb, pronoun, adjective, or within common expressions has also been adopted in the common mispronunciation of Dawkins' meme.[8]

'Mimeme' comes from a suitable Greek root, but I want a monosyllable that sounds a bit like 'gene'. I hope my classicist friends will forgive me if I abbreviate mimeme to meme. If it is any consolation, it could alternatively be thought of as being related to 'memory', or to the French word même. It should be pronounced to rhyme with 'cream'."

Today, many of these phenomena are also spread via popular, user-based or social networking web sites, including (but not limited to) 4chan, Newgrounds, Reddit, Facebook, Fark, Flickr, Myspace, Slashdot, Something Awful, YouTube, or YTMND. Search engines may also amplify the propagation of these phenomena.

Hasbro, The Hub channel, and the show's production team of the show have in turn acknowledged the Internet fanbase, such as scripting the fan-named background character "Derpy Hooves" (so-named due to the result of an overlooked animator's joke in the first episode[24]) in background cameos in subsequent episodes.[25]
