Post memes here.
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.

You’ll find the ‘nerd’ world littered with Monty python sketches. Such as learning …well…python…. The name and some of the examples of how to write python takes directly from the show. it starts with the dead parrot sketch.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
