"Marriage is Love" was the very first colorbar meme, intended to promote gay marriage, it quickly became a trainwreck of drama when anti-gay LJers came to act superior to gays.
The original post, by 
shared_boxers, eventually reached 11007 comments before LiveJournal barfed.
This has led to hundreds of derivative memes supporting everything from Christian beliefs to shitty fanfic. It also helped to inspire moroveus' image leeching prank.
There are three things that contributed the epidemic spread of this meme:
- It took a hot-button issue (gay marriage) and skull-fucked it.
- The "image" was implemented in pure html. Anyone could post it without having an image host or pulling bandwidth from the creator.
- The post that started it provides easily copy-and-pastable mark-up.
The meme eventually came to an ironic full-circle finish when crazayjillay, a teenmommy whore of unrivaled stupidity, used the colorbar to create a petition to ban dead_babies—a LiveJournal humor community which is oh-so-coincidentally moderated by none other than shared_boxers.
