Please, no more of this in Sun and Moon. If I see a Pepe meme in the game I'm done.

Rby and gsc had similar references (like "a winner is you" I remember off hand)

The original translator was a Something Awful goon

There were memes in games before you were born and there'll be memes in games after you die. Time to get over yourself or take up classic literature.

Please. There's probably going to be at least one Harambe meme because of the two monkey/primate Pokemon.

>Classic literature

Dante Alighieri wrote Inferno as a huge "fuck you" to everyone he disliked, and also trash talked several people of importance in Florence; it was so full of crude jokes, referential humor, and reliance upon the reader's knowledge of events real world events and pop culture it was essentially a "meme poem".

Shakespeare is also chock-full of memes.

Nowhere is safe.

furthermore if you know the actual meaning of "meme" you'd know that everyday concepts such as fashion, religion, and education are also memes by definition, and that memes aren't inherently a bad thing

What's the difference between a meme and referencing something?

This man speaks the truth.

>>28674926
A meme is something that gets widespread usage. References can happen once or twice, but once it becomes popular enough it becomes a meme.

>To be or not to be

That, for example, is an old as fuck meme.

Memes are technically and usually a reference something, but just simply referencing something doesn't automatically make it a meme. In this context "meme" is to describe some kind of media that is viral, and well heard of. In this context, the psychic trainer is referencing the line that Vegeta says in Dragon Ball Z. That is itself a reference, but it's also a meme since it's referencing a part of media that has a meme itself.

A meme is one concept perpetuated by a group of people, while a reference is just a nod towards something.

That's pretty understandable, but when did the word meme have such widespread usage? It seemed to happen overnight. A few years ago, the only time you would use the word meme was when talking about those image macros with impact font. It used to have a pretty negative connotation, especially on 4chan unless I'm remembering wrong.

I don't know when it started have widespread usage, but the actual definition of a meme is

>a cultural item that is transmitted by repetition and replication in a manner analogous to the biological transmission of genes.

It was coined by Richard Dawkins in his book, "The Selfish Gene".

>We need a name for the new replicator, a noun that conveys the idea of a unit of cultural transmission, or a unit of imitation. 'Mimeme' comes from a suitable Greek root, but I want a monosyllable that sounds a bit like 'gene'. I hope my classicist friends will forgive me if I abbreviate mimeme to meme. If it is any consolation, it could alternatively be thought of as being related to 'memory', or to the French word même. It should be pronounced to rhyme with 'cream'.

This guy is completely right.

Memes are cultural ideas that spread and compete for space in the human mind space. For example, the habit of shaking hands when you meet someone new is a meme.

Internet memes, the ones most of us extensively deal with, are cultural memes that rely on injokes and a particular breed or viralness to spread.
