Note
One regular -s plural serves every meaning of meme. It covers the older cultural sense, where ideas and practices pass from mind to mind the way genes pass between generations. It also covers the online images and video templates copied with small changes. Context does the sorting. Take care with the derogatory online use: calling claims memes dismisses them as jokes or tricks, which is a put-down rather than a description.
