Thank you for the info! After getting educated about it by you and a few others, I think this proto-meme is simply much more known in the US than it is in Europe, because it was published in an american newspaper long before it found it´s way to the internet. Most users in this thread seem like US Americans, who simply assume if they know it, the whole world naturally hast know it too. That would at least explain the negative reactions to the honest question in my initial comment.
