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.

What's messing me up is that I can't figure out what actually would happen. I know the answer isn't flight, but I'm not sure what to imagine instead. Would they flip each other over? Or would it just kinda mangle the pegs?
It depends, but must of these lifts aren't rated to lift themselves, so they would groan and make noise, but not go anywhere.
Same thing that would happen if you tried to lift your friend while they tried to lift you.
Or, to remove the layer of indirection: grab your own feet and lift up. Same thing as that.
So basically nothing besides some probable self-inflicted mechanical damage?
If anything happened it would just be mechanical damage, yeah.
But like the other guy said, I think they would probably just sit there and groan as they tried to compress each other's frames.
The fork of forklift B is under forklift A. If forklift A tries to lift formlift B, it cannot, because the fork of forklift B would get lifted up as well, but is stuck underneath forklift A.
Therefore, you can achieve the precisely same result by removing forklift B from the equation and turning the fork of forklift A around so that it is pointing backwards and underneath forklift A itself. Now, with your own form underneath yourself, lift the fork up.
It does not matter who the fork stuck underneath you officially belongs to, if what you are trying to do is to lift said fork up.
