Are the "beaned" memes worthy of being called a meme? Let's look at some examples and discuss whether or not it is worthy of the title. To meme or not to meme, that is the question.

Hey guys! I wanted to started a new series which allows us to look at and discuss new memes that don't have much of a history yet. To meme or not to meme? That is the question. Let me know what you think.

Today we look at the "you got beaned" meme which is a bait and switch joke people have began to use online. Green de la bean is the mascot of the meme who is a friendly looking string bean. We've seen various memes who use the concept of a random cute character to have success with memes. Will beaned be the same? What do you think?
