Why so many memes today in particular? Or is it just a case of a couple got posted and everybody followed suit?

Well, part of it is that I've been ushering out all the 'best of' folders collecting dust on my hard drive to give the meme communities on Kbin some meat to go through, and I just found the 'She-Ra' folder with over 1000 files after emptying out most of the regular meme folders.

I swear I don't hoard memes I don't have a problem at all, I can quit anytime I want

I, for one, welcome our new She-Ra meme overlords. Obviously, without trashing Futurama, The Simpsons, King of the Hill, etc.
