That's not true, which is exactly why this is a good meme. The word meme was originally coined as a conceptual analogue to the word "gene*. Ideas spread and evolve, just like genes. Only in the last 15 years or so has it come to mean internet joke, and this is the direct result of people using the word in a different way than it was intended to be used. It doesn't matter what word the OP had in mind when they made this meme (though gif is the most likely candidate), it's accurate and relevant.
Right, so memes are supposed to be funny cause they are internet jokes.
Oh, so you just don't even understand the meme, now I get why you're so upset! I recommend starting by reading the words left-to-right, top-to-bottom. If you don't know how to pronounce one, just do your best. You can also ask an adult to help you, if there's one nearby.
