When the word "meme" is being used to talk about social media or entertainment, like it is being used here, it refers to an idea, image, video, or set of text that becomes popular and that is spread very quickly on the internet. Some examples of memes are Doge and Pepe. Ex: There were so many internet memes this past year. Ex: Oh that's just a popular meme. Ex: I love using Friends memes.
