Just you wait. Give it couple decades. Someone will figure it out. Someone will print memes on a reconstructed matrix printer, using handmade ribbons and authentic 1980s paper exported from Japan. Or something of that sort. Maybe a custom-made computer just to show a single meme? Pretentiousness is a powerful force.

I don't know for sure, but just as I type this I get a sense that someone somewhere manually types ASCII art on a typewriter and sells it for tons of cash.

If you end up being right, though, it would be a good thing. It would mean memes will have won against pretentiousness. It would mean the Interned made something post/modern art Borg cube couldn't assimilate.
