Parents don't always go memes, but when the two mix, it's typically comedic gold. Like when moms began figuring out what "Netflix and Chill" actually meant—or when 2015 became the twelvemonth of the Dad Joke.

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

Commencement off, imagine where you'd hear the phrase "don't talk to me or my son always again." Perchance the speaker's son—permit's call him Billy—got caught up with the neighborhood troublemaker and was busted smoking cigarettes in the Target parking lot or cartoon penises on a classroom door. When the mischief-maker knocks on Billy's front door, Baton's mom or dad is standing there with Billy behind them: "Don't talk to me or my son ever over 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 character Spike Spiegel and a snack-size version of Spiegel with the words "don't ever talk to me or my son e'er again" superimposed in red font. (The character doesn't have a kid in the series, only the thought is that this mini-me is the "son" in this context.)

Splendidland's mail service did fine on Tumblr, racking up effectually six,300 notes. A considerable success, but non what you would phone call viral.

Know Your Meme points out that the meme and so laid low for a while, then made a comeback with help from Yoshi. A Tumblr post from konkeydongcountry in August 2015 featured two plush Yoshis, one larger than the other. This time the explanation was "don't yous EVER talk to me or my son that way again"—tweaked slightly from the Cowboy Bebop post.

Soon subsequently, in October, the meme trickled over to Twitter, retaining its new Yoshi motif. Twitter user @yoshibot posted a motion picture of a life-size Yoshi costume and a Photoshopped version that makes information technology expect shorter. The explanation better matched the Spiegel postal service, just differing past two words. "don't you ever talk to me or my son once again" adds in the "you" but omits the "ever." All three incarnation have the same bones message but are linguistically just a smidge removed from one another.

Since the Yoshi posts, a steady meme-chin has congenital. Equally of Feb and March 2016, the meme has exploded in popularity all over Tumblr And Twitter, fifty-fifty making it to the elusive meme groups of Facebook.

The stage always seems to vary—simply you get the point. The meme typically hinges on a "son" who is but a tinier copy of the parent, usually created through some sort of epitome editing. Many people have also simply turned themselves into the son. True mini-mes.

Merely, like any good meme that takes over our dashboards and feeds, the idea mutates. Either people interpret it in a new light or find some other way to exhibit the ethos of the meme. For case, people take started to notice miniature versions of the parent IRL instead of editing the image.

Some have too found a mode to poke a little fun at the subject of the picture they're using. Case in betoken: identifying Justin Bieber every bit Ellen DeGeneres' son. He might not be physically smaller than the talk prove host, just 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 and then defended that he might as well be the presidential candidate'due south son: Danny DeVito.

There are also 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.

There'south no way to quite predict how the meme might evolve side by side. What we do know is that there's enough of overprotective "parents" out there on the Internet right now, keeping their sons safe and sound.
