they are both original except a cliche loses it's meaning because it's over-used
you might claim memes are overused but the truth is memes are always evolving and they are still in it's baby steps
a cliche would be good guy wins which has been used since the dawn of time but not a meme since they have been since 1980[1] and they haven't got enough time to become overused
another cliam you might make is that they are being overused in this place but it hasn't left this culture so it's still considered a meme
that's it internet memes we are talking about
if i say babbling brook to someone he might say it's cliche but if i say pee pee poo poo to that same person it's most likely he wont get the reference because internet memes havent got a huge impact on the culture[2]

[2] pepe at least, some other memes ahve become cliche[a]
[a]see lolcats, all you're base are belong to us, harlem shake (while itself not a meme but a fad it's still considered as such)
