Memes as Class Objects

I am interested in the idea of the Meme, because it appears to behave in a manner very similar to a Class. A meme is a container that may contain any amount of meme inside of it. A meme as a knowledge unit suggests a discrete action that it accounts for. A meme may have properties.

A Meme, as a transferable knowledge unit, would consist of at least one noun and one verb. This would correlate to properties and methods in OOP.

It would appear to transfer well as a method of capturing work-flow into an object oriented class structure.
