Dont Talk to My Son Ever Again

Parents don't ever get memes, merely when the two mix, information technology's typically comedic gilt. Similar when moms began figuring out what "Netflix and Arctic" really meant—or when 2015 became the year of the Dad Joke.
Enter the latest trend: "Don't talk to me or my son ever again."
Get-go off, imagine where you'd hear the phrase "don't talk to me or my son e'er once more." Perhaps the speaker'south son—let'south phone call him Baton—got caught up with the neighborhood troublemaker and was busted smoking cigarettes in the Target parking lot or drawing penises on a classroom door. When the mischief-maker knocks on Baton's front door, Billy'due south mom or dad is standing there with Billy behind them: "Don't talk to me or my son always again."
According to Know Your Meme, the punchline was originated in a 2014 post involving the anime Cowboy Bebop. Tumblr user splendidland uploaded an prototype of the graphic symbol 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 ruby-red font. (The character doesn't have a kid in the series, but the thought is that this mini-me is the "son" in this context.)
Splendidland'south post did fine on Tumblr, racking up around six,300 notes. A considerable success, merely not what y'all would phone call viral.
Know Your Meme points out that the meme so laid low for a while, and so made a improvement with help from Yoshi. A Tumblr post from konkeydongcountry in August 2015 featured two plush Yoshis, 1 larger than the other. This time the caption was "don't you Ever talk to me or my son that way again"—tweaked slightly from the Cowboy Bebop mail service.
Presently after, in Oct, the meme trickled over to Twitter, retaining its new Yoshi motif. Twitter user @yoshibot posted a picture of a life-size Yoshi costume and a Photoshopped version that makes it look shorter. The caption meliorate matched the Spiegel post, only differing by 2 words. "don't y'all always talk to me or my son again" adds in the "you" merely omits the "ever." All three incarnation have the same basic message but are linguistically simply a smidge removed from one some other.

Since the Yoshi posts, a steady meme-mentum has built. As of Feb 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 e'er seems to vary—but you go the point. The meme typically hinges on a "son" who is but a tinier copy of the parent, usually created through some sort of image editing. Many people take also simply turned themselves into the son. Truthful mini-mes.

Only, like any skilful meme that takes over our dashboards and feeds, the idea mutates. Either people interpret it in a new light or find another mode to exhibit the ethos of the meme. For example, people have started to notice miniature versions of the parent IRL instead of editing the image.

Some accept likewise establish a mode to poke a little fun at the discipline of the picture they're using. Case in point: identifying Justin Bieber as Ellen DeGeneres' son. He might non exist physically smaller than the talk show host, merely information technology totally looks like he's descended from her lesbian lineage.

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

There are besides riffs where the bite-sized sons and their parent are deliciously hilarious.

In other versions, the meme is just escalated to other levels. Like this son of a son of a son of a son… you get it.

At that place's no way to quite predict how the meme might evolve adjacent. What we do know is that at that place's plenty of overprotective "parents" out at that place on the Internet right now, keeping their sons safe and sound.
