Memes have a staying power that has allowed them to outlive many internet trends that have come and gone. Even with the drastic switch in content creation these days, they still remain relevant. Why is that?

One possible reason is their impact on society. An article by the University of Westminster pointed out a meme’s ability to elicit emotions through a simple image and text. Greenpeace co-founder Bob Hunter called this concept a “mind bomb,” a photo that sends a strong message and urges action.

My toddler had a frozen bread roll yesterday. He didn't allow me to unfreeze it, because he doesn't like them "warm". I dared him to eat it frozen then and he did. I have no more power here.

Greenpeace also used memes to make statements about the causes it promotes. Most of their posts covered misinformation about climate change and protecting the environment, which got the younger audience's attention.

She just needs to work on their stealth techniques a little bit more. . .!

Pets, children, husbands, and extended families are famously known to be hard to train. But, it sure is fun watching them try.

About a decade ago something similar happened in Barcelona. Guy trained several crows to snatch money from tourists and they got him only because he tried to sell really expensive watch they got for him :)

To steal what exactly? My cat literally stages elaborate kitty heists to dig cell phone chargers out of hiding places so he can chomp on them 😂

Have you ever tried training ONE cat? She should receive a medal! Besides, chances are they're only stealing cat food.

Don't get duped like others. Snopes.com: On 3 November 2017, the fake news web site World News Daily Report posted a story reporting that an 83-year-old woman named Ruth Gregson of Columbus, Ohio, had trained her 65 cats to steal valuable items like jewelry from her neighbors..." This is false. The clue is obvious.

Unfortunately, outdoor roaming cats are the number one predator killing wild birds. The small rural town we live in has a wild cat problem. Four come around every day to kill the birds at our feeders. Then they p**s on my grill and in our garden, scratch the hood of my car when they climb up on it to get warm on cool days. A general nuisance. Our local animal control has no way to deal with them.

Another possible reason for memes' longevity is their pop culture connection. Many of them include images of some of the biggest celebrities in the world. Remember crying Michael Jordan? How about Ron Burgundy’s famous catchphrase from the first Anchorman movie?

These famous faces have been used to express an emotion that everyone could always relate to, making these memes stand the test of time.

I am afraid this Meme is too accurate and will have to be removed from BoredPanda.

But what makes a meme so effective? Entertainment publishing entrepreneur Kit Chilvers attributes it to their shareability through humor, which brings people together. 

In an interview with the New York Times, he pointed out how memes can make people feel like they belong to a tribe of like-minded individuals. Content creator Saint Hoax agrees, describing these images as "editorial cartoons for the internet age."

Saint Hoax has over three million Instagram followers, building their online presence almost exclusively from memes. They also credit the “transmissibility” of these funny yet relatable posts and how they can translate within different cultures.

“It has the ability to capture insight in a way that is in complete alignment with the zeitgeist,” Saint Hoax said in the same Times interview.

Now, we’d like to hear your opinions. Why do you think memes are still as popular as they were almost 15 years ago? What do you think is the reason behind their longevity? Let yourself be heard in the comments!

So that's a polite way to suggest the person parks better. Can't get mad at that, can you?
