The meme itself was pretty much dead before the actor became deathly ill. The resurgence of the meme and a new focus on the actor himself is due, in my opinion, to a few things; people trying to help a dying man, more people learning of the meme because of the ouroborous of meme publicity, and virtue signaling.
honestly its not even the best lazy town meme. that honor goes to this -- still a better love story than twilight.

Yeah, I wasn't 100% on where to put it.

Thank you! I'll update the tags accordingly.
