however it would be pleasing if someone stubbornly and affectedly stuck to a french pronunciation (like même) since that's presumably the root of it
I'm fairly sure the root is Dawkins analogizing ideas that spread to genes spreading, and designing a word that is explicitly supposed to sound like gene?
Nova_C thanks for posting the Apocalypse world summaries!
You acquired a 4th PC in between the first and second summaries, right? Did you have a friend who couldn't make it to the first session or did someone ask to join the campaign in the intervening time and just made a character to fit the scenario?
Hm wait actually do you have 5 players? Now I'm confused as to who is a PC and who is an NPC :P
You're welcome! One of the players couldn't make the first session. One of the players is currently on holiday and has missed the second and third session.
The players are Reddy Freddie, Grave, Buzz and Jimmy.
ah ok, I wasn't sure if Kay was a PC or NPC; was pretty sure Buzz was a PC who missed the first session
"We totally should emulate the South!"
"Oh no doubt, Trevor. Those cats got it all figured out."
"Dammit, Chet, they're perfect! I feel stupid for not living there already!"
"Tell me about it, brah"
"I mean, not a single flaw."
"No sir. None."
"Well, obviously, the teenage pregnancy rate could be better, but whose couldn't?"
"Yeah, and just because their educational system is broken and not producing capable student doesn't make them any less better than New York City."
"And I don't even see the vast poverty and government dependence as a flaw, really! You gotta have vassals and sharecroppers, right?"
"Oh god yes. Just like the kings of old."
"Right! You get it, man."
"Totally. The racial animosity and disparity is just the icing on the cake."
"Here here!"
--*ten years later*--
"Chet, I've come to the realization I'm an just asshole who really likes biscuits and fried chicken."
To be fair. Bucuits and fried chicken are pretty amazing.

It was Dawkins. Probably the best contribution he's made to society, depending on your point of view

This health food store has pepperoni wraps for lunch.
They cook out the grease from the pepperoni beforehand. I think he said they get about 3 cups of grease from every few ounces of pepperoni. Then, zero carb veggie wrap and fresh mozz.
This place is the best thing.

just spend literally all day in line for a system that's coming out in like a month
totally worth it
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

I always read it as MEEM, but apparently the correct pronunciation is also the dumbest.
