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 meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

I'd watch that Numberphile video
After this I won't ever complain about English spelling system any more.
Other European languages having phonetic spellings fail miserably e.g.
- Italian undici + due = dodici + uno
- Spanish: once + dos = doce + uno
- Fr*nch: onze + deux = douze + un
- Romanian: unsprezece + doi = doisprezece + unu (almost there! only a "u" remains)
日本語：十一 + 二 = 十二 + 一
It works in japanese just fine, in large part because it's (written and phonetic) just "ten one" and "ten two"
Have my upvote for menioning Romania
You can also rearrange the letters in "Mother In Law" to read "Woman Hitler"
