I wonder if there are some “young folks” reading this thread and thinking about posting a detailed explanation to enlighten us all, but then thinking “nah, they’re too old. They won’t get it” and deleting their reply…

Took this from urban dictionary

  • The act of saying something completely inane and dumb but in a way that makes it sound as if you’re quite serious about it whether you are or are not.*

For me, memes are ideas that repeat and spread themselves, they are not the same as a gif, the funny images people use. A funny image is only a meme if it’s used a lot.

Actually the term was coined by Richard Dawkins, hardly a hip young kiddo :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Researchers and popular media use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years, with 1981 to 1996 a widely accepted definition.
