Forced meme
A forced meme is a meme that is, well, forced. This means that the meme was attempted to be made popular, but never actually became very popular or widespread. "Forced Memes" also refers to the act of attempting to make an image or phrase popular by sharing it repeatedly on the internet, especially on imageboards.
Often when a meme is being "forced," the forced meme's popularity will become increasingly controversial. Forced-meme posters are also frequently accused of having mental illness and usually engage in trolling, or are trolled themselves
