A meme doesn't have to be funny. ;)

Shouldn't it be transformative in some way? Like if someone edited it and then submitted it would feel more like a meme to me.
Nah, replication is enough, shows interest. This meme was stolen, thus it lives on as a vehicle. The intention here is to simply get people interested in the world around them. Not sure what the original goal was. This one just has a little more .jpg than the last. I've seen variants of this one, regardless. This is an old one.

So..
Uh..by your logic, every single image online that's NOT original content, is a meme?
No wonder you made yourself moderator lmao.. you've no idea what a meme is so of COURSE you would be the mod ugh. Thanks reddit2.0
Linking to a web definition of MEME to shut people up, is the most boomer shit I've ever seen, and I'm a boomer.
My friend, are you ok?
Do some critical thinking after reading that please
You engaged, didn't you?
Engagement is not the only thing in life lmao what are you, elon?
Block, report or read the rules and ask the moderators. You're wasting your own time and everyone else's, I found this an enjoyable meme and so did many others.
I feel like blocking the user because I don't think they're post fits a community is a pretty fucking drastic action dude. Also I never blocked moderators of communities that I enjoy because the system with moderators and user blocks is kind of fucky on here. I don't think is right to block a moderator.
Edit: cry harder babes it's OK:( the scary man can't hurt you from here
