Between Ghibli and bowls of ice water I’ve been thinking about the attention span of memes and the compression of virality timelines a lot this week. I’ve come to the conclusion that the next generation will reject memes and that they will become a boomer passé.

Memes were the language of the internet because they were not only fun, but also useful as an indicator that you belonged to a specific space and hooked into the zeitgeist.

They are useless as social currency if they explode and die within weeks, and soon to be days, instead of months, and previously years. It’s now just another THING that is accelerating to a point where the original purpose is no longer served.
