Too Late to Meme
This is just a little illustration of the thrill of being first
with a radical hypothesis, and the disappointment
of “going to the sources” only to find that
you’re not the first person to notice a phenomenon.
The first time I saw this image of Christopher Walken,
I struggled to figure out who he reminded me of.
When it hit me that he resembled Scarlett Johanssen,
I went looking for an appropriate image of her to build a meme.

And I found several.
But they’d already been paired to show the same resemblance I had noticed.

Late again.

Never worry that you might be too early to prove a hypothesis.
Worry that you might be too late to offer anything new.
