* MemeticMutation: Powder that makes you say "yes!"[[note]]This meme originates from Plastic Man issue 21. One story features a shape-shifting alien who feeds on salt. In one scene, the alien, who has shape-shifted into Plastic Man, has been found by the real Plas as it was pouring the contents of a large box of salt into its mouth, causing it to exclaim "What?" in surprise. This panel has become a common exploitable, with the label on the crate being edited to read "Powder that makes you [do something]", with the alien's exclamation being replaced with something fitting to the box's new contents, with the original being powder that makes you say "yes!". Also a form of AntiHumor.[[/note]]
