Are "topic icebergs" really a meme? Sure, they're an internet phenomenon, but that doesn't automatically qualify as a meme.

- benatkin 3y agoYes, but an obscure meme. A maymay, if you will.
- hannasanarion 3y agoWhat do you think the word "meme" means, and what features does something need to qualify as one?
- dang 3y agoI've inlined 'meme' to 'iceberg' in the title above so we can hopefully not worry about this.
- Tao3300 3y agoI'd call it an image macro, but the Venn Diagram of memes and image macros is a 99.9% overlap, so we might as well not draw a distinction.
