Memes

I get really irritated when people pronounce memes as "mee-mees" instead of meems because that's supposed to be the proper pronunciation, MEEMS! For God's sake, at least learn to pronounce it right before telling everyone that you know what it is but in fact you don't even know the basic meaning of a meme.

Here's the breakdown, according to Wikipedia, a meme is an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture. It can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals or other imitable phenomena. 

Which I completely agree with because a meme doesn't have to be only about pictures on the internet, it can be about anything! It could just be an idea or a drawing that spreads from mind to mind, hand to paper and becoming popular through a culture.
