Yo dawg I heard you like memes

So there's this meme you've really wanted to run, but you're afraid no one would be interested. Or maybe you have an idea and no time. All chatter about memes, past, present, and future, is welcome here!

Comment here about: memes you'd like to make, memes you'd like to see, suggestions, memes you want reposted, etc.
If it makes you more comfortable, you can comment anon. Just don't be a bag of dicks.
Have fun!

I've been thinking for a while about a drinking meme. Different options would be for different kinds of drunk (the horny drunk, the angry drunk, the in-denial-of-being-drunk drunk, etc.). Both characters in each thread could roll and end up with types of drunk that don't go at all well together...or that do.

Would there be any interest in this if I made it?

as long as you include the bubble/giggly drunk I would be in :D

I want something like a murder mystery (or the like) meme, where a few random people are selected to be the murderer/criminial/whatever, but NOBODY except the meme-poster and the criminal know who it is. In order to find the criminial/murderer, EVERYONE must be tagged, which makes sure no one is left waiting/wanting on the meme!

Bind together! When the criminal is found, EVERYONE CHASE THEM. Or work with them. Whichever.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-24 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
This is a good idea in theory, but it would be ridiculously difficult to pull off with large numbers of people. Unless it was set up into several smaller groups, such as someone posts a setting and the crime within the meme and then everyone who replies to that setting must be tagged by everyone else who also tagged that setting.

Plus it allows for a lot of variable crimes.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-24 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I would love this idea, if there was a good way to work it out.

It'll be like a gigantic game of clue.

Can we have more crossover/cross-medium memes?

(Anonymous) 2012-01-24 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I was thinking of making a personality reverse meme. Basically you make your character as OOC as possible; good is now evil, loud is now quiet, smart is now stupid, straight is now gay and so on.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-24 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
possibly an ooc cr meme, along the lines of 'who do you want to thread with,' e.g. posting with your character and then tagging others if you think the two pups would get along/their canons would mesh.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-24 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
could this be a kind of general OOC meet and greet too?

Coupled with this topic, I would want to include names of people I've threaded with before who i'd like to see again.

people don't drop threads quite as often in this comm as they did on memebells, though, which is nice.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-25 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
This would be awesome. I could see it working as an IC meme too, if OOC requests are too daunting for some. In short: yes!

How about a meme along the lines of Paprika/Inception? Original poster has gone for a a bit of a sleep, those tagging has taken a little trip into their dream...or nightmare.

i want a meme where characters are pushed to their limits and begin to fray- we had the broken meme which was them already pushed over the edge, but the state they would be in right before that is just as interesting.

characters stuck at moral crossroads or being forced to make scary decisions or hurt someone they care about- paranoia, insecurity, the things leading up to a big mental breakdown.

Full-throttle slut meme.

Unrestrained exploration of your character's libido at an extreme, but without any "altered state" drugs or drinking first or "aphros". Just a point where they ditch modesty or shame and want it.

You can even make it like an AU scenario where they'd wind up really wanting to fuck, a lot. Like if they were from FFXIII and a l'Cie's Focus revolved around sex instead of fighting- or Puella Magi were prostitutes, whatever.

It would just be fun to see people be creative with their canons, see what kind of justifications or scenarios they could come up with that would make their characters comfortable or at least okay with having sex a lot, even if it was a matter of changing the details of their canon jobs or professions.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-24 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Like a slutty AU-verse of their original canon?

How about an Evil/Evil-AU meme? Where the posters, or the commenters, are evil (or good) versions of themselves, or from an entirely evil (or good) AU of their usual setting?

(Eye of Sauron states that they intend to sue evil Hobbit terrorists!)

I really want, like... a sleep snuggling meme. Or bed cuddles. I suppose that overlaps with the "morning after" meme, though, but minus the sex element.

In honor of the characters we play who are notoriously difficult to play in "social" or panfandom situations, I want to see something like... a Work Together Or Face Certain Doom meme. The stakes don't even have to be so high. Basically what I want is a chance to play two mortal enemies who have to talk to each other/not kill each other to work through some hijinks. I want grudging allies to reach understandings or work through some u resolved sexual tension while coerced into working together. I want the chance to dust off reserved characters and let them shine when they have to open up and communicate out of urgency. Or I want it to all blow up in their faces - but I wanna have that chance.

Not too sure what kind of situarion could lend that feeling of emergency while still being open to lighthearted or silly stuff, though.

I'd like to see a twist on the auction meme, like make it just a bachelor auction for people to bid on. The winner could There could also be a follow up to that for the date with choices as to which kind of date they won.

How about something like a witness protection meme? Your character is forced into witness protection and sent somewhere else to live with a new job, house, last name, etc.

Carnival meme! There are so many things to do in a carnival, like go to a horror house, go in the Tunnel of Love, judge a cake contest, bob for apples, etc. :)

I also like the idea of a maze meme, kind of like the last task of the Triwizard Tournament in HP4. People have to team up to surmount the obstacles in the maze.
