gollark: Memes can be copied infinitely without the original creator (or whoever you copy from, realistically) losing it.
gollark: The whole concept of a "meme" is that it is shared a lot and maybe gets tweaked and redone and has its text swapped and whatnot as that happens.
gollark: Where are you getting that from? These are just numbers. They're not a count or something.
gollark: I don't think the numbers are meant to represent badness, though.
gollark: The joke here is that you can recover the original numbers via prime factorization!
