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.

I understand what you're saying. I lived in a place that has all 4 seasons. I understand the hassles of snow in winter and unbearable heat in summer without ac
I've since moved somewhere more temperate and I miss the 4 seasons. It's wet, cold and wet, warm and wet, or hot and dry, interspersed with short periods of really nice weather. It's not warm and pleasant all the time, but I'd be hard pressed to give up storms. Here, no thunderstorms. And if we get them they're completely obfuscated by clouds (our clouds sit really low)
I was visiting family recently and got to experience an absolutely magnificent storm and I was so incredibly happy. The last storm I saw like that was from when I visited Disney World a while ago
From this video I caught https://files.catbox.moe/8722ra.mp4
I wasn't even thinking about thunderstorms, but you're right, I would totally miss them! My dogs hate them, but I love a good rumbly light show on a hot summer night, and the cool air that (usually) follows.
Every Midwesterner in the pnw laments the sky not trying to kill us here. It's lovely and I love it here, but the storms that feel like the end of the world are beautiful and wonderful
Lightning and distant clouds are the only thing I miss about living in the flat Midwest.
Mountains and blizzards are a good trade off though. We get thunderstorms too, but if you see a lightning bolt, you’re probably in danger of either dying or frying some of the electronics in your home. And your ears will be ringing.
i never quite understood how loud thunder could be until lightning struck my apartment's parking lot. i grew up in earthquake land and thought that's what was happening.
It hit a phone pole 20 feet from our house once and killed our router and everything connected the the coaxial cable.
All the windows rattled in our house and if it weren’t for the flash you’d think a semi drove into it.
