Life goes by fast, almost as fast as a meme does: young, fresh and viral one minute; then the next overplayed and overposted, dimmed and dulled. But a life is made of minutes and it is only made of minutes: these relatable memes capture slivers of living, relatable occurrences and moments. By understanding something that passes us by in the day's progress, we find ourselves more vividly illuminated than before.

On Reddit, at Me IRL, these relatable memes are gathered and distributed. Sharing the experience of living with others and living with themselves, these Redditors are doing a work of modern memoir-making, whether it's the early alarm, the daily computer troubles or the little daily dreams that color in the corners of the minutes you spend here.
