"Something funny" isn't really what makes a meme. Rather, the ability to take something out of its original context, while also matching appropriately.

Such as Gru's Plan (which I call "Despicable Meme") or the Distracted Boyfriend


In order for a meme to work, it needs to be extremely flexible.
What you've done is make catchphrases. Which is not the same as a meme.

And a lot of the time, they come around by accident, or following in the footsteps of someone else's "recaptioning" until it spins out of control
