Internet memes

We have all seen them. Lolcats, Chuck Norris jokes, and the like. Pick any given topic on beloved geek sites like Slashdot or Digg and you are almost guaranteed to read about how “in Soviet Russia, …” things are done the opposite way or how the newest overlord of X is being welcomed.

I read a new one today and it made me laugh. There was a thread on Digg titled “Why did 3000 Chickens cross the road?” with a link to a story and a picture of a poultry truck crash on a highway. The first comment was priceless…it’s my meme of the week.

In Iran we don’t have chickens crossing the road.
