It turned out that no one in the class had ever heard of internet memes, not even lolcats.
Wow! I'm so immersed in web culture (even at work) that it's hard to imagine. I know my students know about lolcats because they reference them and a few have vast collections. But I don't know if they know about demotivationals. I may have to find a way to work those in. I know the attitude would appeal to my students.
