Let the memes save us

Seamus and Nic are loving the memes right now, and find they really do help take the edge off a tricky time. But can we please stop trying to turn everything into an industrialised meme factory? Not everything needs to be commodified!

If that wasn't a weirdly literal rundown I don't know what is, but there's plenty more I'm sure I've forgotten along the way...
