Get the memetic mug.
the characteristic attitude of mind or way of thinking of a person or group that can be versed in a few short lines and passed off as a legitimate capacity of intelligent thought regardless of the information's validity simply because the information sounds good and is shared throughout social media sources and emails in the form of memes and tactiley as articles, billboards, and bumper stickers.
"Obama is America's First Muslim In Chief" and "Trump Quote, 1998: If I ran as president, I'd run as a republican. They're the stupidest group of voters in the country." are classic examples of misinformation and fake news that have been passed of as legitimate thoughts and attitudes and due to these thought being passed off largely in the form of memes they have greatly influenced the memetality of the masses.

Memet is a very good friend to have. He can make you laugh all the time, and is serious during serious moments. Memet doesn’t know how to handle a girlfriend and leaves people on read. He is also good at Fortnite.

Memetics proffers the tenet that function and form are contra-functional.
Memetics isolates design from form by arguing that there is no duality that is not design.
This is the obverse of the postmodern mantra that "form follows function" and the genesis of Hypermodernism.
