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.

Unless you has a view of the distant horizon in which case you might alternatively conclude it's a convex lens shape.
Climb a mountain?
A slightly perceptible curvature on the horizon only indicates a convex spherical cap, like a Frisbee.
That's not simpler than a sphere, pointing again to Ozzam's razor. Spheres are the simplest geographical shape.
But you can't see anything past the horizon. Occam's razor suggests there's nothing beyond it
Except I can percieve a curve to the horizon, then walk to the point that was previously horizon and percieve that curve continues, thus drawing the conclusion that the curve must continue all the way round.
Well don't complain to me when you fall off trying to walk on some ball. i tried to warn you. 🤷 Roundies smh...
The horizon is always flat, no matter how high you climb. You’d need a rocket to get far enough away from the surface to see its curvature.
Shucks. Looked up photos and all I see is more mountain range must have confused it with fictional media. Well know I know truth for sure.
