The rules got bent and elaborated upon, and we had to make it a little more antipodean, but it's just one of those simple addictive games.
I got this chain email with a Scattergories theme, and since I don't actually pass those kinds of emails on much, I thought I might post it on my blog.

Hi Lucy,
I've tagged you for a 'meme', please check my blog.
...Oh by the way. What does meme mean? Is it like Me Me? Like an overstatement of the Ego? That would kind of fit on account of all the personal stuff they ask for... Or does it mean something else?
Hey David. From what I understand, a "meme" is the cultural equivalent of a "gene", that is, an element of a culture or a way of behaving that spreads from one individual to another, usually by imitation.
It's use in blog posts like this is a reference to the way it spreads from one blogger to another, eventually entering popular usage.
An non-internet equivalent of a meme would be "high-fiving", for example. Although that particular gesture has long been considered an ordinary component of social interaction, it's genesis and growth would have been "memetic" (compare "genetic") in nature.
Having now fully exposed my inner-nerd, I will retreat to my lair, where I will partake in science-fiction and imaginary video games.
Thanks Joe...
More than I'd expected! And I thought it was just another generation Y non word that is valueless outside of mobile telephone sms...
Cheers,
David
