Post memes here.
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
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

When I was a tween (or almost) someone developed a beef with a local sysop and started posting, "WE HAD A DEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" over and over on the BBS's graffiti wall that you saw at login. It became a local meme and people started posting it everywhere in the local calling zone for no particular reason. It was the first sort of flash event I saw, and a significant development in the local culture I was in, but today that culture has been entirely destroyed, and it's a weird thing I don't share with anyone. But it always comes to mind as though it might be relevant, and never is.
Becoming a local meme on local internet had to be so much worse than it is today. No gen alpha child will understand the pain of getting dunked on by all 10 of the people that had a computer near you
