It originally comes from Dawkins' The Selfish Gene. It's been a long time since I've read it but it's like a unit of information that gets shared or something.

In the earlier days of internet memes they all followed certain formats. They're kind of like inside jokes. The definition has gotten more vague over time and now tends to include a caption and a reaction image, so like a description of a scenario and then an image that captures the feeling or response, often written as "When..."

But these days even comics and funny tweets get shared within the context of memes, even though they don't really meet the definition.

Omg thank you for the one with all the bowls falling out of the cabinet. I used the idea to explain why I am afraid to express/ feel emotions. Maybe I will print it out for next time

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
