A meme that has a short life span and is only used for a week or two. It has a shorter life span than an average meme.

Sometimes a meme about a work, that wasn't originally included in the original, attracts the attention of the author responsible for that artwork, and the original author decides to actually include it in their future artwork.
One webcomic that made new comedy out of old Garfield strips by removing the title character so it seemed that Jon was a lonely delusional weirdo, was made into a book actually endorsed by writer Jim Davis, too, and complete with several Garfield Minus Garfield actually made by Davis himself. This is an excellent example of an ascended meme.
