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.

oh no i was talking about actual foot ball not whatever they do in the US
Ah yes. Whatever they do in the US I guess your version would be rugby, whatever involves chasing a ball around & mercilessly tackling each other. But I don't even know the rules for rugby, is tackling involved? I don't know. It's a man's sport, men invented it, they have a primal instinct & desire to fight & clobber each other.
I am talking about the most popular sport in the world, wtf are you talking about
I know what soccer is but there's no tackling in soccer. Is there tackling in rugby? So I was talking about rugby. Because your "fútbol" is our "soccer," but our football is some weird hybrid of rugby & fútbol. So I'm trying to compare our football with whatever sport you might have that involves a ball and men tackling each other.
I never said anything about tackling?? Anyway, here's the comment you replied to, localized to your dialect:
He said football so I pictured this 🏈 (American sport that involves tackling) then my first thought was traumatic brain injury, then someone said, no not that kind of football. This kind of football ⚽ and I said ok I wonder if there are any non- American ball sports that involve tackling which cause traumatic brain injury. Rugby, perhaps? Does rugby involve tackling? Which nobody answered my question but only insulted me because you're all still hung up on the misunderstanding & you're still thinking I don't know the difference between ⚽ and 🏈 .
