Stuff Dartmouth Kids Like: Meme-ing and Dartmouthness

 

Now, I would like to make two dis­claimers. First, I re­al­ized that I don’t re­ally know what a meme is. I get that it’s some kind of in­ter­net joke, but after writ­ing this ar­ti­cle, I Googled “memes” and none of the stuff that came up was any­thing like what I had writ­ten. Sec­ond, in the spirit of flat­tery by im­i­ta­tion, I would like to give credit for this week’s title to Mir­ror colum­nist Kip Doo­ley '12, even though I didn’t ask him for per­mis­sion to adapt his col­umn’s title to my own pur­poses. Meta, right?
