I dunno man, Cthulhu is just funny.
The similarities with FSM are obvious, and I figured it was just some sort of hipster meme. But it just seems so bizarre. I never heard of Cthulu until maybe 5 years ago when I started seeing him everywhere. It's just strange that an obscure character from so long ago was revived. I'm curious what the catalyst was. I suppose you could make the same observation with any meme. I'm not even sure Cthulhu rises to the level of a meme.
