Not necessarily. Take for example the memes on replying with a wall of text or a two-word response, as if to say there can never be a time where doing such a thing is valid or practical. Or the one where the story starts with the main character having a case of amnesia or not knowing how they got there or a story on my little pony, as if a properly written story that starts like that can't be a good story or well-made mod. A great meme is one that limits its targeted group and gets the point across well without discouraging good practice.

I meant they're great in the comedy approach, and whilst I feel that they all do apply in pretty much every case there are examples where they are proven wrong - nothing is universally right, but let's be honest, there are very few examples of well wrote MLP stories, and the character with amnesia is just stale and no matter how well you write it, it will show a lack of innovation.

I'd love a meme that was about long corridors with a room every 5 metres - because really, how many houses are there with the same room repeated eight times along the same corridor in varying states of disarray? Usually every room would serve a purpose or have usually 3 of them -in a huge mansion- but like 8 of them? It's like they're breeding new rooms as you travel down the corridor!

I think they're wrong, but for a different reason: I know that I used the "date-searching axe-murderer" meme wrong, because that meme is about writing something sinister above him, and then continuing the sentence in an innocent way, like basically "I would KILL ... for someone who likes long walks at the beach.". I didn't use the picture as a meme, because frankly the meme sucked.

Who the hell cares? They are reaction pictures! You might feel the same way as the picture shows you.
