DIY Meme with Ruby based, CLI Memegen

As in this 2012, we can see a lots of meme scattered on the internet, spoofs of some movies, pictures and others. Meme's definition can be looked here I found out meme generator from an internet search, you can download the copy from github: https://github.com/cmdrkeene/memegen It works fine with my Linux Mint 12, first you may need to clone the copy to your computer; git clone https://github.com/cmdrkeene/memegen The change directory to memegen; cd memegen After that you may need to satisfy the dependencies - check the Readme.

Last time I bought two books and it took more than a month (they refund me anyway).

Recently the put an offer for the already cheap books, for about 10% (this is quite a lot)
