To Make A Meme

Random question: is there a prinny meme out there?

I feel like prinnies are funny enough and random enough that they would fit the bill for a meme. After spending about fifteen minutes on the meme generator, I could photoslop something together.

I'm thinking something simple, like: "Dood! Yeah, dood!" This first one is positive, paired with a happy/excited prinny. The second one is negative: "Dood. No, dood." Pair this with an angry/horrified prinny.

The meme generator was helpful, but mostly a distraction. The socially awkward penguin stood out as a possible template. However, I'm seeing this as a corner-comment in a larger image of Barack Obama or Scarlet Johansson. Maybe that's too much work.

One of my favorites is the Philip J. Fry (or Futurama Fry) meme and it comes with an image and a formula: "Not sure if X" at the top followed by "or just Y" at the bottom of the image. The formula for a stand-alone prinny meme is the complicated part. Maybe it's not so complicated: "Dood! (something awesome)" at the top followed by "Yeah, dood!" at the bottom. Let's try it out.

EXAMPLE: Dood! ScarJo pics are real. Yeah, dood!

OR: Dood! My office power is out. Going home early. Yeah, dood!"


Yeah, Dood! I like it. I threw it into quickmeme. We'll see how it does.
