Off Topic / Memetics - Meme Classification and more

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=272335.0
here is my theory on the (im pretty sure) unofficial micro-meme
Memetics
The study of memes.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memetics
"Memetics is a theory of mental content based on an brown townogy with Darwinian evolution, originating from the popularization of Richard Dawkins' 1976 book The Selfish Gene. Proponents describe memetics as an approach to evolutionary models of cultural information transfer."
Memes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme
"The meme, brown townogous to a gene, was conceived as a "unit of culture" (an idea, belief, pattern of behaviour, etc.) which is "hosted" in the minds of one or more individuals, and which can reproduce itself, thereby jumping from mind to mind. Thus what would otherwise be regarded as one individual influencing another to adopt a belief is seen as an idea-replicator reproducing itself in a new host. As with genetics, particularly under a Dawkinsian interpretation, a meme's success may be due to its contribution to the effectiveness of its host."
Types of Memes:
Metameme
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metameme
In the field of memetics, a metameme (or meta-meme) is defined as a meme about a meme. A metaphor or the idea of memetic engineering are, thus, metamemes. The concept of memes has been referred to as "The Metameme". Some other metamemes of interest include the meme tolerance and memeplexes.
Memeplex
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memeplex
Much of the study of memes focuses on groups of memes called meme complexes, or "memeplexes." Like the gene complexes found in biology, memeplexes are groups of memes that are often found present in the same individual. Applying the theory of Universal Darwinism, memeplexes group together because memes will copy themselves more successfully when they are "teamed up". Examples include sets of memes like singing and guitar playing, or the Christmas tree and Christmas dinner.

a subject that is often too overlooked by what we now perceive memes to be. though it is kinda funny to say the word meme seriously i feel like not enough of you are aware of this stuff. i could be wrong but from what i've observed you guys are under-educated on the study of memes.
