       | RIP cheems :(. Shibas are known to be extremely healthy dogs that

       | RIP Cheems, the doge memes were the last few ones of _ours_
       | before the entire meme culture got adopted by grandparents on
       | Facebook and, ugh, companies wanting to look trendy on Twitter.
       | And doges never got wrongly associated with fascist movements,
       | unlike the good old Pepe the Frog.
