Judy, from online dictionary: meme is an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from person to person within a culture. I was using it in the sense of an idea. Salyavin knew what I meant so my usage seems correct.
For me, any idea that one MUST do something, especially something as innocuous as join a social media, is scary because it suggests that we humans aren't as developed as I like to think.

And if you did encounter it, I can't imagine why you'd find it scary rather than just silly. I wouldn't join Facebook if you paid me.
