Deep Fried Memes

The meme I chose for my analysis is “deep fried memes.” “Deep fried memes” started on Tumblr in earlier 2015 and have gained popularity on Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit late 2015 and early 2016. “Deep fried memes” are images, memes, GIFs, or videos that have been processed through multiple filters to look very grainy and low quality. The subreddit r/DeepFriedMemes was created to the devotion on “deep fried memes. A recent “deep fried meme” that has come to popularity is the “All my homies hate [x]” which has become one of my favorite memes to come out of them. Another “deep fried meme” that I really enjoy is the CNN broadcast meme. Also, through “deep fried memes” out of date or older memes have become circulated through twitter again but more in an ironic or so unfunny its funny setting. This meme isn’t necessarily one specific meme but how the meme looks like and is formatted in.
