Post memes here.
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.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

MODERATORS
I get what you're going for, but not everything is literal. People refer to their computers as "rigs" even though they can't drill for oil.
When people use the word "organic" for food, they're specifically referring to particular certifications, like the National Organic Program in the USA, and foods that are "organically farmed". I agree that the naming isn't ideal, but the word "organic" is very commonly used for this, and therefore it's a legitimate definition of "organic". That's just how language works :)
Guano wars, anyone?
Isn't this a thing everyone always does? Isn't monoculture turns soil into shit?
Maybe. I'm just tired of seeing "GMO-free" soda kind of idiocy.
