Super User retiredbosn Posted December 2, 2014 Super User Posted December 2, 2014 I think most of the confusion is that few ppl know what a meme is. I had to look it up, seems that an old archaic word is making a comeback. Meme is simply an idea, trend etc that is spread through a culture. I.E. in common vernacular a fad. Like ppl calling each other dog, ******, etc Quote

Jolly Green Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 Not that some good effort hasn't been put forth here, but so far a simple Bill Dance "dadgummit" is still funnier to me. 2 Quote

Super User Sam Posted December 3, 2014 Super User Posted December 3, 2014 From Wipekedia: A meme (/ˈmiːm/ meem)[1] is "an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture."[2] A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures.[3] The word meme is a shortening (modeled on gene) of mimeme (from Ancient Greek μίμημα Greek pronunciation: [míːmɛːma] mīmēma, "imitated thing", from μιμεῖσθαι mimeisthai, "to imitate", from μῖμος mimos "mime")[4] and it was coined by the British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene (1976)[1][5] as a concept for discussion of evolutionary principles in explaining the spread of ideas and cultural phenomena. Examples of memes given in the book included melodies, catch-phrases, fashion, and the technology of building arches.[6] Makes sense now? I sort of feel like Abbot in an Abbot and Costello skit but I do understand the concept. Quote
