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.

I'll never understand why US suburbs like to utterly nuke any kind of nature around their houses and replace it with "lawns". Like, I'd rip that stuff out and at least plant some potats and shit immediately.
It's just that much easier for developers to raze all plants to the ground before grading and running other heavy equipment. These are new construction and so those developers aren't accountable to anyone, and I'm sure the local jurisdiction doesn't care. That's not a justification, for what it's worth, just an explanation.
What I've never been sure of is why people don't eventually realize how much nicer everything would be if they just replanted trees (or left them in the first place) but they seem to be used to suburban hell. If you drive everywhere it's less of an issue that your environment is shit.
You're assuming people who are forced to buy into the suburban hell have a choice.
If a person had a choice between a 100k house in a suburban hell or a 100k house in secluded heaven. That they pick the suburban hell.
Have you seen the housing market in the US?
It's also funny how "Suburban" meaning has changed. It's supposed to be non-urban.
But with these "suburban" neighborhoods in cities. It has basically became a word for a neighborhood with houses built next to each other and less about where it's located.
Suburbs use to be an inexpensive option as opposed to urban living.
Can confirm. I am trapped in suburbia for at least three more years.
I can’t wait to head for the hills.
