Re: Meme?

Do you know what a 'fad' or 'trend' is? A meme is basically a fad or trend. Like Over 9000, Cool Story Bro, Attax, This is Sparta, All Your Bases Are Belong To Us.

Re: Meme?

So yeah
Memes are phrases or pictures or whatever that people like to spam because they think it makes them look cool
Well thats how people misuse memes at least
They can be fairly funny if the person using it isn't an idiot

A meme is just anything popular on the internet, I think.  tongue

And, thank you, Lightnin. My friends call my a human dictionary, so 'memetics' will be 'Emily's Word of the Day' tomorrow, as my friends all it. xD
