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.

As they other two comments said, it's for the overhead baggage space. Airlines need to start enforcing passengers to use their correct/allotted baggage space.
This is why I always make sure my carry-on fits under the seat, so I don't need to fight for overhead baggage space.
Or bring back gate check for overhead bags.
They've done that on every flight I've been on in the past like 5 years. They start by asking for volunteers, then start yoinking people's bags as they board.
I mean gate check where they give it back to you at the gate on the other end not regular bag-check at the gate.
They do that only on the tiny planes that don't have bins large enough for carry-on bags.
I recall it being relatively common up until about 5 or 6 years ago on most flights where the overhead bins would likely fill up.
