Sometimes it makes me sad to think how much humor like this will be lost when time removes the context that enables it
Time to get the Meme Collage of Alexandria going.
If that somehow catches on fire, you can at least re-establish the phrase "This meme is lit".
knowyourmeme.com + archive.org
I wasn't expecting a serious answer but you're absolutely right!
If you printed a bunch of memes you've collected, hung them in a gallery exhibit and for sale as pop artwork, would you be courting a legal storm, flying in from all directions?
Absolutely yes. Which I'd also assume to be part of the reason brands coming around with memes are always so late to the party. The legal issues and getting the consent of all copyright holders (if even known at that point) is going to be a pain in any legal department's ass. I doubt it would be much different for a private meme exhibit.
Of course, by 2100, there would be a historical context to view it from.
