The best memes never die. They get remixed, reused and revitalized into new and usually funnier life forms.
Case in point: When the cringe-worthy video of Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer getting pelted by eggsat a conference in Budapest first surfaced online in
May, it had the ring of a never-ending meme.
And sure enough, the egg meme has a new home online as a free flash game called "Egg Attack."
The game, created by Swiss multimedia company Cultimedia, lets users re-enact the viral hit as either the software heavyweight "egghead Ballmer" or as the rebellious Hungarian student, dubbed "egg-throwing nerd." Wonder if we'll start to see versions featuring a young, aggravated, foul-mouthed Bill O'Reilly, spelling bee bloopers or death-defying sports stunts?
