Thank you. Let's not forget that at its root, "meme" just means "imitated thing" and is just an idea that can be communicated from one consciousness to another. It's a scientific concept, defined by a term coined by an evolutionary biologist to describe the way that ideas move through a culture/society. Memes are not new and have likely been around in some form since before spoken or written language existed

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
