I don’t speak German and even if I did I wouldn’t know what is going on as to why there is so many posts in German referencing pizza. Anyone in Germany care to clue me in?

The German feddit (and reddit) space has bursts of memes. A while ago it was stupid puns using sturgeons or eels. Currently it's pizza.

These intense meme storms (Stahlmemegewitter) last for a few days and then blow over.

Of course the Germans have a word for bursts of meme popularity.
