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.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

I got everything but the souls reference, far fetched, but it'll do, dog.
In the souls series you can use a special item to leave messages in the actual world for other players to see, be It a warning, a tip or even jokes.
When writing these messages, you have to choose a template, that usually have one or more blank spaces, then you choose between their bank of word (locations, items, concepts, monsters, items, etc), to fill the blanks.
Alas, in Elden Ring, we don't have the word "turtle or tortoise", despite having many turtles in the game, like wild and friendly tortoises, an even a literal Tortoise Pope as an NPC.
With this lack of description, we then use the word "Dog", which is available, and honestly pretty funny, you see a tortoise in the wild, and a message near It, then you click thr message and...
"Behold, Dog!"
"Ah... if only I had a Dog"
"Why must it always be Dog?"
"Be aware of Dog"
"Dog ahead"
Turtle pope? That is my dog.
Ok, so this joke is pretty layered. Love it. Haven't played a Souls game in a dogs age, so totally missed that one.
Thanks for that elaboration!
