A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

Okay goodness call me a liar, damn. I could have just ignored your request for knowledge or told you what I happen to know off the top of my head with no evidence, but I went out of my way to find you two citations. And because I am so fucking nice here is a third: https://www.definder.net/Shawty_got_tha_fatty
Thank you for letting me know I will never miss any nourishing conversation by blocking you.
