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.

If you start reading Sherlock don't start with this one. He's not in 90% of this book because he tricks Watson into thinking he's not interested in this adventure, and Watson tries to solve it alone. The Hounds of Baskervilles was my first Sherlock book and it was nearly my last
Me but with my car stereo
This one pisses me off so much because it takes my car a few seconds to start playing music, and the buttons don't work while I'm backing up because my laggy/buggy "infotainment" system doesn't respond while the backup camera is active.
So I start my car, put it in reverse, and start backing out of my garage, only to have my ears melted by the previous driver's listening preference, and I can't even adjust the volume until I take it out of reverse.
Fwiw, I believe the infotainment not responding while the reverse camera is active is meant as a feature, since you're meant to be focused wholly on where you're driving, might even be a regulation requirement.
As you pointed out however, in practice it really just means you're stuck with whatever the audio setup was left at before going into reverse (compounded by the unit being made with as cheaply sourced components as possible, to the detriment of usability and responsiveness).
Some units do have a built-in feature where it'll heavily lower the volume (maybe by about half?) whenever you're in reverse to mitigate this.
My husband with my car’s stereo. (We say “my” car and “his” car for ease but in reality we try to take my car whenever possible or for longer distances if we need cars at the same time because it’s more efficient.)

Playing music via speaker oudoors vs using the same speaker indoors the next morning
The ~~hound~~ Sound of Volumekill?
The *Sound
Absolutely!
We have a customer at work where the start of every one of his phone calls is both a jump scare and hearing risk. Real nice guy but we just got headphones with noise compression and I’m so thankful!
Said goddamn this is a great starting point… we need story tellers!
