I hope you showed him what's what.

Hold infinity in the palm of you hand, And eternity in an hour

Fun fact: the poem "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost is widely considered to be about taking the road "less traveled", or, more literally, making decisions that fewer before you have made. However, I and some others have opted for a less common interpretation that hinges on the end of the second stanza, which reads "though as for that my passing there / had worn them really about the same", which indicates that the roads (and thus, the choices) that the narrator has available were taken at a roughly equal level.
There are many ways to reinterpret the poem under this new light. I like to consider the idea that the narrator is remarking on our tendency to paint ourselves as independent free thinkers - a painting that we present both inwardly and outwardly. We might tell stories of those times where we went against the grain in the presence of the judgmental eyes our peers, but the reality is that our decisions were controlled by our desperate attempts to relate to others and not nearly as uncommon as we like to believe. Ages and ages hence, we tell these stories with sighs not with quiet nostalgia but out of secret disgust for ourselves - knowing at some level, despite the surface lies, that we have never and will never form a truly original thought I mean me too thanks.

That invalidates your meme though. Guess the ear's staying banned
Fun fact: the long and tedious reply "I Have Never had an Original Thought" by Duolckrad is widely considered to be about human beings falsely painting themselves as free and independent thinkers, or, more literally, going against the grain in desperate attempts to relate to others. However, I and some others have opted for a less common interpretation that hinges on the end of the second paragraph, which reads "...we have never and will never form a truly original thought I mean me too thanks", which indicates that the reply (and thus, the implications on the nature of humanity) that the narrator has available were taken from just another copypasta.
