New game gang. Take an image from your webcomic and internet meme-ify it.

Some person on Wikipedia wrote:In casual use, the term meme often refers to any piece of information passed from one mind to another. This usage more closely resembles the analogy of "language as a virus" than Dawkins' analogy of memes as replicating units.
This definition has come into popular use on the Internet to refer to phenomena such as Obey Giant, "All your base are belong to us", Blogebrity and Icy Hot Stuntaz.

Even with Cope's wiki definition, I still don't understand what one's supposed to do.
Faith is what credulity becomes when it finally achieves escape velocity from the constraints of terrestrial discourse- reasonableness, internal coherence, civility, and candor. Thus, the men who commited the atrocities of September 11 were neither cowards nor lunatics of any sort, but Men of Faith- perfect faith- and this, it must finally be acknowleged, is a terrible thing to be.

Yes. Let us bask in the cheap laughs that Outraged Claude provides.
I *think* I understand what we're supposed to do here, but nothing from my comic really works...

I think the closest thing I have is
this, and I didn't even draw it.

EDIT: Wow, looking at this panel cut from the rest of the comic, I suddenly realize all these ways it could've been improved to better emphasize the situation, which down the line would've made a better meme pic. Draw and learn, I guess...
