Colorbar
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
A colorbar is a form of meme which originated as Marriage is love by shared_boxers. Generally composed of a table with HTML color codes or an image-based strip of pictures manipulated in photoshop to be colored as a rainbow, a colorbar is generally subtitled with the expression "X is love," wherein "X" denotes whatever vile perversion the colorbar is about.
[edit] Best examples
Very soon after the first colorbar ("marriage is about love"), a second colorbar came out, titled "marriage is between a man and a woman". This second colorbar received much negative attention but was nowhere near as popular as the first one, because, contrary to popular belief, most Americans haet buttsecks.
Since then, colorbars have joined the ranks of other types of meme art such as the image macro in becoming increasingly complex and often finely crafted, and being used for the purposes of trolling or making amusing or ironic points. Some of the best image-based colorbars are presented here.
