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
Do you also say random words in foreign languages and then explain that "ライブラリー" means "biblioteca"?
No but sometimes but my vocabulary randomly and sometimes for no reason at all contains some words that British ppl use and sometimes Australian :3
(Although its extremely tempting to learn German just so I can randomly start speaking in German)
I can tell you, that as a native German speaker, deeply submerged in English media and programming languages, sometimes I don't remember the German word and just insert English words into my sentences and everybody above the age of 45 gets extremely angry about that, while everyone below that age will just blink, nod and then go along.
It's a really weird level of Zweisprachigkeit when you suddenly start to mix words.
Same (not a programmer, though). Some words in other languages are more precise or fun. Same goes for proverbs and idioms.
Just randomly agree with someone with a simple Genau while nodding your head.
