It's a continuation of a specific theme or idea in a viral fashion. It's not just some random photoshop.
This is a meme because it's all playing off the same concept: dude's tattoo.
But I can't just post some random picture of a flower superimposed over a vagina and say, "This is Chiefsplanet" and call it a meme. It has to have a generative event and a resultant uptake (usually involving some bastardization or ironic twisting of the originator), and then a viral spreading.
