Feedback?

I definitely remember when this came out.
It may be a meme, it really depends on how many instances and stuff it has made.
But even if it isn't a meme, it WAS viral.

A viral section would definitely be nice.

There's a tagline that is placed in the thumbnail notify it's Viral.

Example

Yes, but a way to sort for those things that are specifically viral, as opposed to just searching for the memetic and getting told that it is viral as a bonus.

Definitely viral, definitely worth creating an entry for that reason. Go for it, BZ.
