I dunno how long you have to work on the speech, but if you are still working on it...

I was thinking it might be an idea to make a portion of your speech about how memes typically start off in small social groups, but occasionally escape virally and spread like wildfire.

For example, we have a few memes in this forum, for example...

However, that meme obviously will never escape this forum and spread to others.

I suspect that almost any social group will have at least 1-2 memes that are known only to that group. They are typically called inside-jokes, though I suppose the term meme has been replacing it with time. It almost seems like the word "meme" has achieved a meme-like quality.

I do the speech tomorrow morning ;-;

But I did liken memes to inside jokes, thanks Karilyn.

I would say that Project Chanology probably has some articles on it, but I guess it's too late now.
