hawkeline:

usually I’d worry that the sudden flood of “tag yourself” posts would quickly oversaturate the market, but honestly, this meme seems almost impossible to get sick of?

  • there’s a bunch of different categories (mspaint animals, group photos, etc) (special agents, cutesy friends, etc)
  • even within a category, the exact choices are always pretty different
  • even if it’s the exact same post, every reblog is different b/c you learn abt the reblogger
  • it doesn’t trick you into wasting time: you can spend 10 minutes deciding who you are if you want to, or you can easily scroll past the short, distinctive posts.
  • it’s interactive
  • it’s personalized
  • it’s multi-layer: there’s the entertainment of the original choices, then the entertainment of deciding which is most relatable, and the memeyness of the entire trend
  • speaking of which, relatable things are always fun

i love this meme
