Being the bookworm, I couldn't resist this particular meme. The last one I'd indulged was the superhero one. This one on the other hand, makes a lot more sense.
by Lewis Carroll
After stumbling down the wrong turn in life, you've had your mind opened to a number of strange and curious things. As life grows curiouser and curiouser, you have to ask yourself what's real and what's the picture of illusion. Little is coming to your aid in discerning fantasy from fact, but the line between them is so blurry that it's starting not to matter. Be careful around rabbit holes and those who smile to much, and just avoid hat shops altogether.
Take the Book Quiz at the Blue Pyramid.
I'd hoped for Through the Looking glass or at least H2G2. Anyway, there it is though, full of smiling cats and queens playing crocquet with flamingos.

Dr Susan Blackmore wrote a very nice book called - The Meme Machine. Essentially it describes that the next form of self-replicating life to evolve are the memes which exist orthogonally from the carrier minds in just the same way organic life lives in comparison to the inorganic matter.
So let me follow up on the latest meme doing the circuit. Yes, the superhero quiz.
You are Batman
| You are dark, love gadgets and have vowed to help the innocent not suffer the pain you have endured. |
And I get a super hero who has no super powers. Well, back to finishing
that 'absolut anger' pic.
-- Now, release your anger! Only your hatred can destroy me!
