   Tim,   
      
   Regarding the kibological use of the word 'meme. I think the so-called   
   memes, which include CAPITILISATION, and other trivial means are not   
   worthy because original concepts or ideas have to be able to inspire   
   more than just its peer group and I doubt anyone outside ark would care   
   what IFYPFY memes, yet it is proudly displayed as a 'major' meme - ahaha   
      
   It therefore also occurs to me that because triviality is the chief   
   pursuit here, I could coin a memetic term for people like you -   
      
   triviology   
   triviologist

   Maybe this will allow kibo to escape from the hell he has created for   
   himself here?
