Derby #167



The derby this week is about the satirizing of American culture by memes. Mostly focusing on YouTube related “overnight stars”, the mocking of what society olds in high esteem is the theme of these shirt designs.
Derby #167 I believe has the capability of producing some very interesting designs. With all the random, crazy, awkward, stupid, idiotic things and people that are making it big because of a video or some other communication output. There are a lot of chances to be creative.
Looking through some of these designs, two memes that seem to be appearing in a majority of submissions are cats and the dramatic-look chipmunk.



This chipmunk appears on the Viral Video Chart website

With other submissions coming in, it’s fun to recollect the myriad of memes saturated in our society’s media and culture.
