You're confused about what a meme is!

Have a better informed day

[โ€“] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

An idea that spreads through a culture becoming a commonly known and repeated concept?

[โ€“] androogee@midwest.social 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Any datum that spreads from person to person.

Commonly known is not a part of any definition.

So is a group text deciding where to have dinner a meme?

Conversations don't tend to spread.
