re: ^ While not as creative., Why not DIY? A new meme generator lets you drop Bernie Sanders and his chair around the world except, that now it's cost its author too much from google "Hi! If you're here, it's probably because you want to put bernie in a place. Unfortunately, the google maps API costs have spiked overnight, and I cannot afford to keep the site running (and am unable to pay what google billed me when I woke up this morning!) If you'd like it back, you can donate here and I'll make sure to put it back online when I can afford to do so! Help keep this site alive!" https://www.theverge.com/tldr/22242998/bernie-meme-generator-sanders-sitting-chair-inauguration
