Forums / Discussion / Meme Research

I'm noticing some people are just saying 'this' in reply to comments around the internet. Is this a meme, what does it mean?

Just slang really loose term for what it is…..

Same as this (win v)

^this

So many arrows! >_<

+1 (too short to post anywhere now, so this^ took it's place?)

I thought I asked and we discussed ^it ?

It's short for "I agree with this statement", but it's much funner just to say "^this"

Edit: Yay, I'm a researcher!

This has been done before.
