Globalization: a meme travels around the world to be worn by an illiterate salesman at the Sunday bazaar in Lahore.

Abstract
Used clothes, originally given out as charities in the West to organizations like Salvation Army, are sold in bulk at cheap rates to Pakistani salesmen. Imagine my shock at seeing a very popular internet meme on this local salesman's body who didn't even know how to use the internet.
