Are there any books about memes and the deeper philosophy behind them?

This video got me wondering:

I've already read Kill All Normies by qt Angela Nagle but that was more history and sociology/psychology than philosophy.

I plan on writing something called "Memetics." which would be about the history of memes and the rise of meme magic as told from an actual 4chan user. I'm of the beleive that one really must live the life of what he's authoring. I've used pissbottles, poopjugs, cumboxes, wear a fedoras and trenchcoat, built and still have an anime shrine. I'm the guy to write it. I still feel overwhelmed by the amount of content needed for writing. I got to give a culture review and history of each board. This has had me lurking the desu-archive and 4plebs as far back as they'd go. I'm trying to pinpoint the origin of certatin memes, but it's almost impossible to find stuff pre-2004.

I don't think it'd be embarrassing. What's there to be embarrassed about really? Is anything worth being embarrassed over? Is someone gonna realize I browse 4chan? I'm always telling my family about 4chan. They don't mind.

Memes aside.
Memes are actually important like the NPC meme. Which is a satire for conformist who lacks self awareness.
Basedboy for people who are ignorantly positive.
Pepes and Wojaks is just for the same feels I guess.
It might sound hilarious overanalyzing memes but it's not.
