Memes: 

• Dr. Who Pair-O-Docs Meme - "I was trying to find memes  that spoke to like our relationship and how I look at the world. So I found one and there are two actors from Dr. Who, which I don't watch. But one of them saying, 'Why can't you have two doctors in the same place? Reason is because it would be a pair of docs.' And it just struck me funny because we were on a journey to become a pair of docs for a long, long time. So I appreciated that... And paradox. I love paradoxes."
