Memes That Repeat Forever And Ever

Did you know that Richard Dawkins created the word "meme?" That famous atheist is not entirely to thank for all of the funny images we proliferate on a daily basis. In fact, his definition is nearly unrecognizable from what I understand a meme to be. According to Wikipedia, this is what a meme is:

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. 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

If that doesn't perfectly define internet memes, I don't know what does! If you want to see some ideas that have spread from person to person that have meaning, all you need to do is scroll down.
