Webcomic readers/artists have been known to create their own memes, which are usually adapted from other sources and printed in comic form.

Please add entries in the following format:

    • Meme name: description of meme and how it's used.
      • Source of meme and fandom it relates to in the form of a hot tip.
      • Famous instances (such as the Rickroll during the Thanksgiving parade).
