Meme Fest
By Clive Python | 14jammar
The year is 2017, a man with no past political experience is in the White
House, some genius at Sony is making an emoji movie and now there is going
to be a meme festival. No, this is not a sick joke.
Yes, for just c. 13.86 Dollarydoos you can get a ticket to go on Friday the
21st of April 2017 at The Colonial Hotel in Melbourne!
As the Meme Fest writes on their Eventbrite page;
Help celebrate the night by coming dressed up as your favorite meme and
topping it off with our meme cut
outs and face masks! There will also be awesome prizes for the
best dressed on the night so make sure to channel your inner Yao Ming
and rememeber to pay attention
to all the meme visuals! And if your
still keen for more memes then look no further than our meme themed
drinks and free photobooth.
Hop on down just like Pepe the Frog and spend your night listening to all
the things Rick Astley is never gonna do and don't forget your sunglasses
for Take On Me. Be there or Cash Me Ousside Howbow Dah.
One thing to point out about the description, apart from the spelling, is
that they put "get away from your Crazy Girlfriend", yeah,
I think people who are going to go to Meme Fest don't have girlfriends.
Yes, it's really happening, honestly, we're not sure if this is an ironic
thing, or if they're being unironic. All we do know is that you might as
well burn your money than spend it on this.
Anyway, my opinion doesn't matter, let's see what the nice people of
Facebook think about Meme Fest!

Last but not least Michael Green says;
theres no way im going to miss this shit
@Huxide says;
And lastly @MrMan9001 says;
God help us all, Australia was a mistake
Hahaha! Yes, it sure was a mistake!
I feel like I'm missing something, after looking around on the Web for any
evidence that Meme Fest really took place, I found nothing, it's almost like
it never happened. There are no articles talking about it happening, there are
no videos of the event, there are no photos of it, nothing at all - even
the Facebook page for the event
goes to a 404 page. Was Meme Fest even a thing, or
was it like Dashcon and one giant scam?
If I didn't know better, I would have said that Meme Fest was just a joke that
got out of hand, but it couldn't have been as the organizers were selling
tickets for money
for an event at The Colonial Hotel - a hotel that's
website
was made well before Meme Fest was known about. I even tried
searching Colonial
Hotel's website for any information about Meme Fest, but as I expected I found
nothing. It's weird that an event called "Meme Fest" had no photo/video proof,
surely someone would have taken some evidence of it happening, but nope, there
is nothing, it's almost like it never happened.
Did it even take place? Who knows. Does anyone care? I guess I somewhat do, as I'm
doing an update to this page and in the past, I have even
asked for people to contact
me if they have any information, but alas, nothing has come up
