Does anyone have a meme that shows a guy asking what a meme is?

You must live under a rock since the invention of the internet. Or worked for the Biden DOJ.

The attached article explains the joke.

Here are some memes, usually published daily.

Sometimes it’s easier to give a broad range of examples of a thing than to try to give a verbal definition.

In this case the meme was sly, arguably a very well-hidden joke or prank. In general, some of the best memes are high satire.
