Memes have become very popular due to the use and development of the internet. The earliest meme is questionable and unknown. Memes are defined as 'an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other non-genetic means', according to Google. In saying this one of the earliest memes could be The Church of the SubGenius which was a parody religion. This dates back to the late 1970's, however there are probably more older memes.
