MEME REFERENCE

Deep Thoughts

Use for mock-philosophical reflection on a question that sounds profound but is often trivial, absurd, or obvious.

What it expresses: An everyday observation is elevated into exaggerated intellectual contemplation.
Example: A friend wonders whether a meeting about reducing meetings should count as another meeting and posts this as a deep thought.
When not to use it: A team is carefully analyzing a difficult ethical decision with real consequences; treating it as faux wisdom could trivialize the work.
