It’s every blogger’s wet dream come true, LEGO and BACON combined! Now all I have to do is sit here and wait for the millions of hits to pour in as the masses seek out the two most prized possessions in all Internet history! Seriously, why is it that most bloggers are so fucking fascinated with posting about legos/bacon and 35.5% of every blog is dedicated to updates about lego creations and bacon products? Who the fuck’s idea was it to make these two items a viral marketing campaign?!?
CONSPIRAPORN! 
It’s a meme dude. Obviously too deep and thought provoking for you to understand, lol.

It’s just annoying, that’s all. Though, it does seem that the “Bacon Craze” on the net took off shortly after swine flu made it’s way into the public consciousness. Maybe it’s a way for people to fight their fears, or perhaps it’s a mega-conspiracy by the pork association of America to keep people buying their product… 😛

People needed an excuse to buy bacon? It’s yummy.

Sure it’s a tasty treat, but most Americans are eating too much bacon, know what I’m sayin?! Bacon perfume, bacon deodorant, bacon flavored condoms, a shirt that just says “Bacon!” on it… Come the fuck on already….

It’s probably that dogs fault from that commercial a couple years back, for Beggin’ Strips’ or something, where he just says “Bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon!!!”. It got stuck in to our simple little minds like a subliminal message, and now some people can’t stop thinking it all day long.

This will never go viral. Those aren’t legos but generic “blockos”! 😉

Heh, for the record, anybody who uses our little SEARCH bar at the bottom left of the page, looking for either BACON or LEGO, this post will probably be the only 1 you’ll find… EVER.
You know, unless some amazingly unbelievable lego creation or bacon product storms on to the scene.

For anybody wondering, here are a couple articles discussing the origins of the dreaded BACON MEME.
http://ask.metafilter.com/110390/Where-did-the-bacon-meme-start
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2009/04/bacon.html
The best explanation so far is: People like to eat bacon +
People like to express their every whim on the internet =
Ergo, people like to talk about bacon on the internet.
Still not sure how/why LEGO became so popular.

I don’t get it. It’s like Steampunk. Interesting for a minute, but then really boring.
We should create a meme. Conspiraporn should change its subtitle to “The Anti-Meme”…

Some Steampunk is a little cool, I guess, but not really. I’m about as sick of hearing the terms “meme” and “viral” as I am hearing about bacon and legos. 99% of the viral shit and “memes” are fucking meaningless and only used to sell products or hype some crappy movie.
“The Anti-Meme”, I kinda like that.
