Memes ARE pop culture.

We all know the meme: an attractive girl walks by while a boyfriend holding hands with his girlfriend gawks. The girlfriend looks betrayed and angry.

Honestly, seeing people apply memes in real life is one of the greatest joys of the 21st century––not to mention when they make nerdy Star Wars jokes using those memes.






Truly, it's genius.
