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.

- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

The point of the made up saying is to demonstrate that LLMs are just yes men.
What if you mishear a saying or phrase you hear in the street? You ask an LLM and it confidently tells you some BS about what it means, how often it's used, and it's origins. Even providing sources that lead to, at best, unrelated phrases.
How is that helpful?
A real person would likely say, "I've never heard that one before" rather than try to gaslight you (hopefully!)
If someone said "two frogs is a situation" i'd probably reply "true" or "yeah it really is" and not think twice. I like that phrase so much I might add it to my vocab same with 'expanding the width of the snake'
