The internet really mangled how people perceive the words "memetic" and "meme" . If I start singing the intro to that song, when a guy's mumbling "on the way", while playing the guitar part, 90% of American adults will be like "oh yeah!!", and they'll know the tune. That's memetic enough for me to call it such. Memes aren't only a picture with white text.

But yes, somehow my dumbass brain decided the guy was actually saying "Ennui", and I have no idea when that happened.

I'm so sorry, everyone!
