Frequently Asked Questions
What is a meme?
A meme is a joke, image, or idea that spreads from person to person and changes a little each time it is shared. Online, most memes start as a single picture, video, or phrase on sites like Reddit, X, or TikTok, and people copy the format and add their own captions. The word comes from biologist Richard Dawkins, who coined it in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene for ideas that spread through culture.
