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 learned it in grade school in New Hampshire. Fridays were half days in winter and our PE was going to the mountain for the afternoon and getting skiing instruction. I was in a small poor town with no street lights, we were not rich. Equipment was subsidized for the kids who couldn't afford it. I do wonder if money to support it came from outside our community. There are a few winter Olympians that I graduated highschool with.
I never realized how privileged I was to have that experience until I was in college. I have probably gone to the mountains less than a dozen times since then. Too expensive, and I have better things to do with my time now.
I would not have guessed because Californians consider the east coast flat
That's just because the Appalachians are old and worn down. TBF there really aren't that many proper cliffs out that way. Here tourists fall off the damn things all the time.
I've lived in 49/50 states. California is where I came back to stay.
