Posting the same joke with different meme formats would be the equivalent of convergent evolution.

I think two different meme templates that are used for the same type of joke could be considered the equivalent too. To me it makes more sense to compare a meme template to a species and a particular meme to an individual of a species.

The destiny of all species is to eventually become crab.
Why do you think humans have evolved to have less hair than our ancestors? Its the start of a long journey that will eventually being us back to CRABB.
