Screenshots of text comments are all over the internet though. I used to think about it before coming here, but now I just take it as a normal.

Ahhh, but a pet peeve is only useful when it is kept to one’s self!

When you try to turn your pet peeve into a meme, that’s proselytizing ;)

Words on picture != meme

So many widespread popular memes are screenshots of tweets. That’s no different than a comment.

A meme is just something funny that you share, so anything someone finds funny and posts online or shares with one friend is sharing memes.

Seems wrong to consider regular jokes as internet memes

What are chain email jokes than the OG meme? If you take a picture of the joke and share it, you just memed it. Share it vocally, and yeah it’s not then.

What if you write it again? And I meant that it doesn’t seem right even though it technically mighr be.

By the technical definition, it doesn’t even have to be funny, it only needs to be quickly sharable

Usually you wouldn’t share something that wasn’t funny/amusing though, there is that whole angle of sharing horrific stuff for shits and giggle though… so yeah it really doesn’t matter.

Usually yes, but, at least in programming, “data is code, code is data” is a meme, in the sense that it’s sharable. And it’s not exactly funny, it’s just an idea.

But yeah, meme is used for intense-based jokes because it’s the norm

Needs to be a picture of a monitor screen with the meme on it but taken with a potato so it’s all blurry and shit.
