Calling something a dank meme thus suggests a broader critique of the meteoric rise and fall of viral content.
thisiscreheZ buthere'smynumbber.The phrase dank meme first emerged in 2013 on message boards within 4chan and Reddit that were dedicated to making parodies of existing memes and mocking meme culture.Īccording to Know Your Meme, one notable early instance of the phrase featured the so-called Gnome Child (a character from the online game Runescape) with the caption: “born just in time to browse dank memes.” Another shows a baby dressed as a police officer writing a ticket, with the caption “ur getting a ticket sir that meme wasn’t dank enough.”Īs these examples illustrate, memes that use the phrase dank memes tend to be deliberately unusual, self-referential, and brimming with in-jokes that poke fun at meme creators who think they’re offering fresh takes on memes but have, in fact, fallen behind the internet’s fast-changing times and tastes.
