Memes "spread[] by means of imitation" and are "cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures" (Wikipedia). Of course it's going to be repetitive and screenshots of different apps. That's the definition of a meme, and we are in a community called memes.
