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.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Actually, this is how I look at people who think stating that insects are animals makes them big brains... Its right up there, with "Spiders arent incests because they have 8 legs." or "The sun is actually a star!" or "America is actually a continent". Its always the most basic of shit that people who try to make others feel small use during these annoying conversations.
Umm, actually, spiders sometimes ARE incests. In fact, an article I saw when googling that said that it was actually safer for the male when they were incests (as they're less likely to be killed and eaten). And they can be or not be incests for reasons other than their 8 legs...
The other ones being, there is actually no such thing as a fish, and a tomato is a fruit not a vegetable.
That fish thing is gonna be the next big culture war. Some fucking idiot is going to say that if you eat Salmon, youre a cannibal because Salmon share like 60 to 70% of their DNA with humans and then we will be off to the races. Next will be interspecies erotica... And its OK, cos 60% is close enough... or something... lol
Insect? Or incest? Freudian slip?
What are you doing, ~~step~~ bro? ;)
