A scene from National Lampoon's Vacation modified into a meme about using low-brow media to explain complex financial topics like the Federal Reserve.

Two panels from the movie National Lampoon's Vacation. In the top panel, Clark Griswold speaks to his son Russ. In the bottom panel, Russ drinks from a can while Clark continues talking. Text overlays explain the strategy of using memes to trick people into learning important things.

Well, Russ, I make memes because people have the attention span of a toddler at a petting zoo I have to trick them into learning about important things, using pictures with women, or sports One day, your friends will be so dumbed down, you'll have to make pornos and coloring books about the federal reserve
