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.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejÀ tÀnne.

MODERATORS
More like "nice-in-quotation-marks". Maybe "polite" would have been a better word. They smile bigger -- exaggerated and insincere. They try to satisfy whatever you're wanting so they can conclude the interaction as quickly as possible. They keep an air of superior self-righteousness while being nice... defensively.
Mind you, I do even put "polite" in quotes on purpose. The more stuck-up folks can very "politely" cut you straight off at the knees in a way that preserves some semblance of plausible deniability where poorer folks (on average, very much a generalization) may be more real/authentic in general and can be more direct about calling you an asshole.
Mind you, this friend of mine who made this observation didn't say any of what I said in this comment. That's just my own editorializing.
