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.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

My thing is: How do people handle stuff that has to be done between 9-5, Mon-Fri?
I tried to switch ISPs on Friday (which was an hour-long ordeal), got to the part where she said “Okay, I think that’s everything I have for you. I’ve got the disconnect screen pulled up, when would you like to —“ and the call dropped.
It’s now Tuesday, and I haven’t found a spare hour during the work day to call again.
I’ve also got a home warranty company telling me to update my claim or they’ll close it, but I need to talk to the receptionist at the plumbers during business hours to get them to resend the invoice.
And then I get stuck in this loop of:
Why can’t people handle things over email or a web portal? This is so much unnecessary stress and contortion.
To answer to your first question, we don't have such demanding 9-5 jobs. I can step out for an hour and no one will notice I'm missing, I'm invisible at work and it's the way I like it
