The Internet's Least Popular Meme

Permalink

It began as a whim, a way to vent my love of footwear. Footwear specifically situated on my feet that is.

Now 18 months later it’s morphed into the internet’s least popular meme.

#shoesinsitu has a staggering two advocates sharing poorly filtered pictures of their shoes in familiar places.

But what do numbers mean? pah! For me it’s all about those godamn shoes and here they are, in their meme entirety!

It’s so far below the radar it doesn’t appear in Apple TV’s listings for suggested comedies, comedy dramas, or romantic comedies - perhaps because it’s a mesh of comedy and drama and the cinema going punter doesn’t do genre splicing too well.

IMDB gives it a lacklustre 6.3, Rotten Tomatoes has it down as kinda squishy.

It’s awesome, ignore the reviews, watch it.

I finished Season 5 of Breaking Bad last night, my mind now a twisted car wreck of what next?

It’s a show that defies categorisation, part Western, part Godfather, a lot Jacques Audiard’s A Prophet.

I’m a zealot, but it’s the pinnacle of drama in any form. A masterpiece in acting, narrative, character development and art direction. Each time you think you know what’s going to happen next, you’re slammed into the wall and dragged on a different crystal blue paved path. Marvelling at the symmetry sustained over 60 hours + of TV.
