Discussion Memes:

These memes aren't memes specifically, but are recurring post elements that have become meta memes added to content to generate comments.
 * Prove Me Wrong/Change My Mind: Someone makes a declarative, possibly "controversial" statement and then asks people to challenge their position. This originates from the meme of the man sitting at the table on the college campus with his "Change My Mind" sign.
 * Wrong Answers Only: Someone asks a question and requests silly answers.
 * Unpopular Opinions: Users are asked to post their perceived non-mainstream opinions on Star Trek content

Debate Memes:

These are memes that usually focus on controversial plot elements or characters. The memes are named after the most common position taken.
 * Janeway killed Tuvix: A frequently recurring debate about whether or not Janeway should have split Tuvix back into Tuvok and Neelix.

These are concept memes group members alter to appear as clever as possible: Expression Memes:
 * Elf on the Shelf: Variations include Spock on the Rock, Sisko on Disco, and other similar versions.
 * Don't beam me up Scotty, I'm taking a Sh-

These memes aren't so much memes in a traditional internet stance, but frequently used sayings within the group, often as shorthand for an opinion on a situation. These are the "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra" of memes.
 * "I'm Liebing dis gronp": A poorly typed "leave this group," this expression is generally used to mock those who become frustrated with the group for seemingly absurd reasons and make a grand display about leaving the group due to those frustrations, rather than simply leaving. In its earlier forms, the expression was, "I'm leabing this gronp," but has evolved within the STSP group due to the similarity of moderator Lyndsey Marie Lieb's name and the word "leab."
