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.

I don't know why maybe the painkillers are speaking but I have to ask, does farts count as negative mass?
I'll take my leave...

Okay ... enjoy your painkillers, man.
Incoming vibe killer: no, farts do not count as negative mass. They do in fact have positive mass. You will weigh ever so slightly less after farting. And, in theory, if you were in a frictionless environment, you could propel yourself by farting, because the fart's mass would act as a reaction mass and propel you like a (very weak and stinky) rocket.
Negative mass would be a very weird thing that breaks physics in a lot of ways, and probably isn't physically possible in the first place. Allowing faster-than-light travel is only one of many stupid ways negative mass would horribly wreck all known physics.
Thank you for the explanation.
