There’s gonna be that one academic weirdo in 1000 years who’s focus is “Memes and Internet History of the 21st Century”.
I’d bet money there are already thesises(??) theses (thanks, atomicorange!) and dissertations on this.
There’s def already stuff like interpreting use of emojis. For example sometimes you have text messages show up in a court case and there are people who can officially “interpret” what the emojis mean for the court.
Theses is the plural of thesis. Kinda looks stupid out of context but there you go.
With the proliferation of memes, that’s probably going to be its own branch of academic study.
So one of my great-great-great grandkids might be able to get a PhD in Memeology?
