It is pretty easy to get sucked into the seductive world of memes with images. The bold colors. Deep frying. Cursed images. And of course, iconic human subjects. The images manage to do a lot of talking without actually talking. Just imagine the Distracted Boyfriend meme without its now-famous trio of stock photo models.
