Advice Animal memes resort to the use of animals and humans embodying behavioral clichés, and whose discourse is reinforced by their titles (‘memonymes’) as well as the decontextualization of the initial image. Although these memes feature discourse belonging to specific genres (advice, personal stories, satire…), they challenge them: advice is ludicrous, and satire only recuperate others’ discourse and replace it in another context. Archetypes break the existing rules, whether animal or human stereotypes: animal clichés update through selfcontradiction, and social preconceptions are simultaneously summoned and dismantled.Downloads
