A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Just imagine how much money you could save by not caring about grown men playing a children's game
While I'm completely disinterested in football, and I do think the craze is often more than a bit much, this is just overly reductionist. Does everything one cares about and finds fun/interesting necessarily need to have intrinsic value? I'd say no.
No it doesn't, nor did I suggest otherwise. Only that it incurs expense like any hobby, and that any meaning a person finds in it is imbued, not inherent
Not obsessing over millionaires who don't give a fuck about you, playing a children's game for their billionaire owners who really don't give a fuck about you.
Why? So you can forget that both of these demographics exploit you and the entire system on the daily? Maybe it's better not to forget.
