By Dawknin’s original definition (cultural) memes are ideas, behaviors, styles, or practices that spread within a culture by imitation (Greek mimema, meaning “imitated”) and carry symbolic meaning. Some examples would be the “Keep Calm And Carry On” posters during WW2, the concept of the “American Dream” or toasting with glasses.
However in this context we’re talking about internet memes which is not synonymous with cultural memes. An internet meme is a picture or video that is funny, ironic, or relateable. The picture above is neither a cultural nor internet meme.
I find the picture relatable and inspiring.
I'm sorry if all you want to see here is chipmunk vagina, but this meme is more important than that.
Chipmunk vaginas aren't memes either. What's up with the bad faith? That's completely uncalled for. Did I make a snide response to you? No I didn't - I was being perfectly polite.
Chipmunk vagina.
Highly upvoted post from two day ago. You didn't complain about that post, so I figured it must be the kind of thing you approve of. Or maybe you hadn't seen it yet. Maybe I shouldn't assume. My bad.
If you want to be the meme police, have some principles.
This is, in fact, an idea, and the intent here is to have it spread by imitation. The more people imitate this, the better chance we have surviving these 4 years.
