Post memes here.
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.

I mean, this is one where you don't have to make up an example. The only Asian character in the books is named Cho Chang.
That's the joke.
The joke is that JK Rowling names her characters offensively.
I've seen this done before with multiple non-existent examples.
This one also uses a Japanese example.
My point is that JK Rowling already named an Asian character offensively. She also has an Irish kid named Seamus that loves blowing stuff up, and a black man named Shacklebolt.
All I'm saying is the joke is now distracting from the source, because there is a real example of using her naming conventions on Asian characters. I'll also say that we don't actually know Cho's nationality, yet I don't have faith in JK Rowling to distinguish between non-European nationalities.
Of course, the longer I talk about it the less funny everything becomes.
Sergay Lovecock would make for a badass porn name though
