Forums / Discussion / Meme Research

These icons are seen a lot around DeviantArt. It's basically an icon that shows a certain animal (or Pokemon etc…) licking the screen. If plz accounts are considered a valid meme, then I was wondering if these would be considered a meme as well.

You mean the one started by GlassWind a long time ago?

(which I actually just posted on the forums yesterday?)

Proof, please.

These are what I'm talking about, if you go to DeviantArt and search for "Lick Icons" you'll find a whole bunch of them.

Oh man, these aren't just limited to deviantFart anymore either. When I was a gaiafag I saw them from time to time.

So they're on the really bad sites?

Somewhat.
Go to scratch.mit.edu, every other avvy is a lick icon.
