   	Krita might be simple enough for you and there are other paint   
   programs.  But memes can just be words that stick in your memory.   
   "Tail wagging the dog" is a meme from 20th Century that was brought   
   up again when Trump authorized the assassination of the Iranian   
   General. "The South Will Rise Again" is a meme that seems to be   
   re-enacted in the American South.  "The Lost Cause" is another that   
   the American South which lost the War created to make it seem   
   that the War was about more than keeping slavery legal.
