I am a psych student evaluating some of the users on Sherdog. One of the most interesting things I've noticed was the development of Sherdog memes.
Such as the following:
Nickname-status fighters (Full Camp Mendes, Sea-level Cain, Motivated Penn)
Huge, if true.
Sage Northcutt Threads
Conorbless
As I mentioned, part of my research is to understand why people are attracted and oriented towards these behaviors. My belief is that each person who plays a role in memes has a submissive quality about them derived from their relationship with their fathers. If their fathers did not give them a lot of attention, they would "say phrases" that would make their dad's happy. In this case, the Sherdog community is "dad" and the "memes" are phrases to earn praise from dad.
