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.

Does grunge / alternative rock still exist as a genre in any significant way? It never even occurred to me to look if there's still new stuff coming out in that style.
I like to listen to oldies from time to time, when I'm in the mood. However, it's usually just a temporary phase from time to time. Though I find it funny that someone mentioned "Semi-charmed life" in another comment because that song has popped in my head a number of times in the past month or so for no discernible reason at all. Sometimes when that happens it's because I heard a song in a movie or TV show, so that makes sense, but I don't believe that applies to that song.
It does, and almost feels like there's a resurgence of it to me. But maybe I'm just seeing it for the first time. Went to a show with Stand Atlantic, Magnolia Park, and The Home Team and they nail that alt rock vibe pretty well while still adding modern touches. And I found that just looking at local shows at moderately sized venues near me.
Those are the oldies now.
