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.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

MODERATORS
I like the theory that the Mayans were absolutely correct: the world does end on 21 December 2012.
But "the world ending" doesn't just happen all at once like flipping the switch of existence.
No, it ends by falling apart, disintegrating, devolving into chaos. Slowly at first, but compounding in speed and severity. Still, fast by "end of the world" standards may very well be "almost imperceptibly slow at first" to the human frame of reference.
In short: the world started to end right when the Mayans said it would. We're just starting to realize it now.
I'm right there with you. The last decade can be easily described as "things falling apart"
I believe I'm going to live far longer than anyone born before 2012, or I'm going to die after society collapses
