A meme is an idea that spreads itself, supposedly in the same way that a gene does in biology. In the context of /tg/ and 4chan in general a meme is a running a joke, a pattern of text or images that is posted repeatedly, either for its own humor value or as a punchline to certain types of post.
New memes are created all the time, while old ones go out of fashion, but a selection of /tg/ memes includes:
- Just as planned - Used to indicate some clever feat of manipulation or forward-planning, often by Tzeentch or his minions; alternatively, used to indicate Tzeentchian involvement in a humorous manner. Originally an /a/ meme based off of some obscure anime called Death Note.
- Love Can Bloom - Refers to a specific tale of a Vindicare Assassin falling in love with Farseer Taldeer, his intended victim. Used more generally to indicate sweet and gentle happenings within the GRIM DARKNESS of the 41st millennium.
- Bear Lore - A reference to the incredibly stingy Bear Lore chart in the 4e Monster Manual, which implies that a high degree of Nature skill is required to even know that bears have claws and teeth.
- Alignments - a Motivational Poster describing one of the nine classic D&D alignments, with a photo and quote of someone that embodies that ethic.
- What I Made / What the DM Saw / What I Played - three-piece clipart describing how the player subverted expectations.
Many memes take the form of recurring characters:
- Angry Marines - A chapter of space marines characterized by their unending rage. They wear yellow armor emblazoned with red angry faces, and wield a number of specialized weapons including power baseball bats (with nails through them) and power boots.
- Cultist-chan - A chaos cultist with a skimpy outfit, an incredibly annoying voice, and horrible teeth. Incredibly popular amongst the weeaboo and crazily popular in drawfaggotry.
- Faptau - A Tau with a penchant for masturbation. Yeah, that's about it.
- Loli Daemonette - A young Daemonette of Slaanesh, and a popular subject of drawfaggotry.
A forced meme is when a single person repeatedly posts something, in an attempt to make it a meme.It usually fails.
BEAR WITNESS TO MY ASCENSION
While most memes never make it out of the shit pit of the internet several of /TG/'s have been included in their source materials, almost certainly owing to the fact that their creators are one of us.
