Huh. That's not how I grew up with the term.
E.g. "it's become a meme at this point" doesn't make sense if it refers to an instance, as well as it does referring to the concept of the joke.
Why not both? In English, every word is a noun, a verb and an adjective, each with 28 1/2 meanings, anyway.
lol, I mean, sure. Let me rephrase: am I the only one who remembers the word meme to originally mean only the conceptual joke format rather than a specific sample of the joke format?
That's probably better. (?) 😁
Pepperidge Farms remembers ….
Pretty much exactly the vibe I was going for, haha
