I am a sucker for cultural reference jokes, esp if it’s some subculture that I am/have been a member of (e.g. IRC in the late 90s/00s).

It’s something like that feeling of familiarity and comfort you get when you sing along with a song you know all the words to.

That's because there is no Antimemetics Division.
