Caption memes from the CLI!

Create Meme using ImageMagick

ImageMagick can caption stock images, but it cannot make them a meme unless you provide the right text. This tool makes no attempt to make you more popular or snarky. It only attempts to make it easier for you to magnify your inner self.

The scripts here are simply highlighting usage patterns of the convert command which are conducive to applying captions to images.

Good luck ruling the Interwebs!
