While traipsing down an Internet rabbit hole yesterday, I ran across an interesting concept about Internet memes: “deep fried”. The idea is that the image has been processed and pixellated half to death and ends up looking like the difference between a raw French fry and one that’s been in the boiling oil too long. Apparently the canonical one of these is the Lord Farquaar “E” meme — which supposedly stands for even less than the Jerry Seinfeld show.

Perhaps a Dali or Picasso would help. If patients could focus on a single element in either would be a true test of both eyes and brain function.
