Who knows why or how a meme like this starts and spreads? And who can guess how long it'll be a thing?
Ours is not to wonder why -- ours is just to post before it dies.
The #DetroitCommandments tag is as popular Friday on Twitter as free coneys or Vernors would be. Dozens (hundreds?) of meaningful and mirthful commandments are tweeted by local loyalists, including the city and its social media manager, Amber Lewis (see above).
Actually, thou shall drink Vernors is a commandment that stands alone, period.
