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.

The more I think about the late 90s and mid 00s, the less I want to go back to it. What I want is to not know things, not know how horrible things are, because I know things in the 90s and 00s were horrid too, I was just too young to notice.
I'm sure there are some people out there that have nostalgia for 2012 because that's when they were a child. I remember the massive push for Ron Paul 2012 and how insufferable everyone was.
That's nostalgia for you. When we were kids, our parents had fond memories of their early days. In 30 years, kids today will pine for these times. It's how that works. It's not universal, but for most people, they remember fondly the time they were younger, healthier, had less responsibility and their whole lives ahead of them.
I have good news! They won't see 30 years.
