As long as they don’t bring back the “Love is…” kids, I’m ok with it.

I’ll take, one of the things very wrong about the 70s for $500, Alex.

Little Miss only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.

Surely you’ve seen the new “Little Miss” memes floating all over the internet, and showing up on your news feeds.

First I heard of this meme was in a WaPo article about the phenom a few days ago, and now here. Clearly, I’m not on the cool kids’ internets.

I share your exact experience. I’m always learning about memes on WaPo or the Guardian (and I don’t expect to ever haunt Twitter or TikTok). But I keep thinking there’s going to be a quiz at some point…

I get my meme news from the daily beast.

More like the middle-aged Facebook user’s internet. The kid’s shit is waaaay weirder.

That’s how I learn about things too. But I figure if I’m hearing about it from a media outlet, it’s well past cool.
