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.

Church key
I remember the first time as a kid, that someone asked me to hand them the Church Key, and I was majorly confused. Why do you want a key to a church? We don't even go to church, why would we have a key? Do people who go to church all get their own key to the front door?
I had a lot of questions, and they didn't end when it was explained that a church key is a can opener...
"THEN WHY DO THEY CALL IT A CHURCH KEY? WHY DON'T THEY JUST CALL IT A CAN OPENER?"
I often call it that too, although I think it would be difficult to break into a church using one.
Well, if you have a key, you probably don't need to break in.
we slapped a lil magnet on ours and it lives on the fridge.
