Parents don't always get memes, but when the 2 mix, it's typically comedic gold. Similar when moms began figuring out what "Netflix and Arctic" actually meant—or when 2015 became the yr of the Dad Joke.

Enter the latest trend: "Don't talk to me or my son always once again."

Kickoff off, imagine where you'd hear the phrase "don't talk to me or my son always again." Perhaps the speaker's son—let'south call him Billy—got caught upwards with the neighborhood troublemaker and was disrepair smoking cigarettes in the Target parking lot or drawing penises on a classroom door. When the mischief-maker knocks on Billy'south front end door, Billy'south mom or dad is standing at that place with Billy behind them: "Don't talk to me or my son ever again."

According to Know Your Meme, the punchline was originated in a 2014 post involving the anime Cowboy Bebop. Tumblr user splendidland uploaded an image of the character Spike Spiegel and a snack-size version of Spiegel with the words "don't ever talk to me or my son ever again" superimposed in red font. (The character doesn't have a kid in the series, simply the thought is that this mini-me is the "son" in this context.)

Splendidland's post did fine on Tumblr, racking upwardly around half dozen,300 notes. A considerable success, simply not what you would telephone call viral.

Know Your Meme points out that the meme then laid depression for a while, and so made a comeback with help from Yoshi. A Tumblr post from konkeydongcountry in August 2015 featured two plush Yoshis, i larger than the other. This time the caption was "don't you lot Always talk to me or my son that way once more"—tweaked slightly from the Cowboy Bebop postal service.

Soon after, in Oct, the meme trickled over to Twitter, retaining its new Yoshi motif. Twitter user @yoshibot posted a movie of a life-size Yoshi costume and a Photoshopped version that makes it look shorter. The caption better matched the Spiegel mail service, only differing past two words. "don't you lot e'er talk to me or my son over again" adds in the "y'all" but omits the "ever." All three incarnation take the same bones message just are linguistically just a smidge removed from i another.

Since the Yoshi posts, a steady meme-chin has built. As of February and March 2016, the meme has exploded in popularity all over Tumblr And Twitter, even making it to the elusive meme groups of Facebook.

The phase always seems to vary—but you get the point. The meme typically hinges on a "son" who is merely a tinier re-create of the parent, usually created through some sort of prototype editing. Many people take too simply turned themselves into the son. True mini-mes.

But, similar whatever good meme that takes over our dashboards and feeds, the idea mutates. Either people interpret information technology in a new light or find another way to showroom the ethos of the meme. For case, people have started to find miniature versions of the parent IRL instead of editing the epitome.

Some have also plant a way to poke a little fun at the subject of the picture they're using. Case in point: identifying Justin Bieber every bit Ellen DeGeneres' son. He might not be physically smaller than the talk show host, but it totally looks like he'southward descended from her lesbian lineage.

Another pop play on the meme features none other than Bernie Sanders and a pint-sized supporter so dedicated that he might also be the presidential candidate's son: Danny DeVito.

In that location are also riffs where the seize with teeth-sized sons and their parent are deliciously hilarious.

In other versions, the meme is but escalated to other levels. Like this son of a son of a son of a son… you get information technology.

There'south no manner to quite predict how the meme might evolve side by side. What nosotros do know is that there's plenty of overprotective "parents" out at that place on the Net right now, keeping their sons safe and sound.
