Memeticism

Everybody's seen the Chuck Norris facts website. No biggie there, but did you know that there are dozens and dozens of such memetic sites?

For example, Randall Monroe facts tells us that [w]hen nesting, Velociraptors consider the possibility of a Randall attack and that [o]ne time, Randall Munroe, while exiting a black hole, cut himself (he was teaching himself how to whittle)... one of the drops of blood became Nikola Tesla, the other became Albert Einstien.

Or that Alton Brown facts reminds us that Alton Brown doesn't reduce sauces - [h]e demoralizes sauces - and that Alton Brown's freezer operates at minus-twenty-seven degrees. Kelvin.

And finally - at least finally in terms of how willing I am to read through these lists - Stephen Colbert truths wants you to know that Stephen Colbert knows what Willis is talkin' 'bout and Stephen Colbert invented horcruxes.

In case you weren't aware...
