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.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

I live in one currently. One of the early ones from the late 60s.
Location is great, city provides hot tap water and heating. Cheap utilities.
Huge amounts of these were insulated all over the country starting from the late 90s. EU also provided funds for that after my country got in.
I honestly don't remember seeing typical commie block not maintained well from the outside in cities nowadays.
On the negative side - walls are crooked and not soundproof, this is usual, flat sizes are a bit too small for families. 50m^2 is most common for ones built before 80s I think.
I did talk lately with retired construction engineer that knows these, he said that although these were built cheaply and were supposed to be temporary - as long as steel reinforcements don't rust, probably will outlast all of us.
interesting! thanks for the insight.
