Is this what HE thought? Or what you projected onto him as having thought?

I joke with my friends and partner all the time about "so and so memes". As in, when I go on a tangent about Alan Watts and spirituality, or get excited about the nature of consciousness, or talk about psychedelics, or how much I love sex, they laugh and say "that's such a Reverie meme"! And I laugh too cause it's true. But I don't feel ashamed of it being my meme.

I also laugh about my partner's obsession with games, his tendency to go on antitheist rants, his "omg - squirrel" attention span etc and say "that's such a (my partner) meme". One of my best friends gets dramatic about Avengers characters and writes "IN ALL CAPS" whenever he is excited about something. That's a (my friend) meme.

Maybe your way of writing is a Yael meme. And that's a GOOD thing. Not anything to be ashamed of. People relate to the things that make you a meme. Embrace it, because I guarantee all the people you feel judged by have just as quirky things about them. They have their own memes.
