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

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

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

Co-ordinate 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 take a kid in the series, but the thought is that this mini-me is the "son" in this context.)

Splendidland's post did fine on Tumblr, racking upwards around 6,300 notes. A considerable success, but not what you would call viral.

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

Shortly after, in October, 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 better matched the Spiegel post, just differing by 2 words. "don't you ever talk to me or my son once again" adds in the "yous" but omits the "ever." All three incarnation have the aforementioned basic message only are linguistically just a smidge removed from ane some other.

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

The stage always seems to vary—only you go the point. The meme typically hinges on a "son" who is just a tinier copy of the parent, normally created through some sort of image editing. Many people take also simply turned themselves into the son. True mini-mes.

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

Some have also plant a fashion to poke a piddling fun at the subject area of the film they're using. Case in bespeak: identifying Justin Bieber as Ellen DeGeneres' son. He might non be physically smaller than the talk show host, but it totally looks similar he'south 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 as well be the presidential candidate'due south son: Danny DeVito.

In that location 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.

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