Mem. But in my defense it is because that is how I heard someone else say it.

Concurred. If somebody asks me what a Meme is, I start talking about how Richard Dawkins coined the term.

I tell people "it's an Internet joke that stopped being funny long before it got around to you."

An inside joke shared by half the internet, generally based on pop culture and repetition.

I don't always try to explain memes, but when I do I do it Captain Hammer style.

A meme is a reoccurring joke, normally an image, which changes slightly with each iteration.
