    No, I completely get where you’re coming from. As a blind person, they are just terrible. Because instead of saying what people want to say, they just post this damn picture that I can’t read and completely kills any conversation. I block all communities that I can for memes just because it’s pointless for me to have them show up.

      Those are actually just one type of meme (called image macros, maybe?).

      Rick Rolling is a meme, wazzup was a meme, Jingle Bella, Batman Smells" is a meme…there are lots of other things that are memes. Though I do have to admit that a lot of memes are visually-based.
