The correct way to use the template r/memes using this template

Overview

A meme image featuring a dramatic dark fantasy scene with two armored characters: a towering figure clutching a massive sword under a stormy, golden-tinged sky, and a smaller figure appearing to charge toward it. Overlaid text reads 'The correct way to use the template' and 'r/memes using this template,' humorously critiquing improper meme template usage within the Reddit community. A 'Supermeme.ai' watermark is visible in the bottom right corner.

Origin notes

This meme appears to be created by adding text to an existing fantasy-themed illustration, likely using the Supermeme.ai platform (as indicated by the watermark). The reference to 'r/memes' suggests it is intended for Reddit's meme community, mocking common misuse of templates by presenting this as the 'correct' application. The original fantasy artwork is repurposed here with added text to create a meta-commentary on meme culture.

This meme uses official fantasy art from the video game Dark Souls 2, depicting a massive, enraged, screaming armored giant towering far above a tiny, insignificant armored human figure holding a small knife at the giant's feet. The giant is labeled "THOSE WHO USE THIS TEMPLATE CORRECTLY" while the tiny figure is labeled "THOSE WHO USE IT INCORRECTLY". The joke is a meta commentary on internet meme culture, framing people who follow established template usage rules as powerful and important, while those who misuse popular meme templates for unrelated content are tiny, irrelevant, and completely outmatched. It plays on the common shared frustration of online communities with people misusing well-known meme formats incorrectly.

Two bold white text overlays are present: the top text reads 'People who think this giant wins' and the bottom text reads 'People who use this meme template correctly'.

A fantasy-themed meme image depicting a dramatic, apocalyptic scene with two warrior figures. A towering, menacing armored giant with a horned helmet and glowing red-hot hands clutches a large, ornate sword. Below, a smaller warrior in red and black armor stabs upward at the giant with a sword. Overlaid white text labels the giant as 'weakest condom' and the smaller warrior as 'strongest trash bag,' creating a humorous contrast between the epic visual style and mundane, sarcastic comparisons of everyday items. The background features dark, swirling clouds and ruined architecture, enhancing the dramatic fantasy atmosphere.

This meme uses famous boss artwork from the notoriously difficult video game Dark Souls 3 to create a relatable medical joke. The huge, overwhelming screaming boss is labeled 'People who are unable to describe their symptoms', while the tiny player character attacking the giant boss is labeled 'Doctors who are trying to diagnose them'. The joke compares the difficulty doctors face diagnosing patients who can't explain their symptoms to fighting an overwhelmingly difficult boss in a famously hard soulslike video game.

This is a meta remix meme using the popular 'rejecting a brain-shaped hand' template. A cartoon man in a white shirt holds up his right hand in a stopping gesture, with a speech bubble stating: 'No thanks, I prefer making this meme with an AI-generated template.' To his left, a hand edited to resemble a human brain reaches toward him, referencing the original meme format where this hand represents traditional or established methods. The joke is self-referential: it uses a classic human-made meme template to satirize the growing trend of using AI tools for meme creation, poking fun at the shift away from relying on pre-existing, community-made meme formats in favor of AI-generated alternatives.

A four-panel comic meme. Panel 1: A simple stick figure stands on a brown cliff, saying "Give me upvotes" with a crowd of small figures below appearing angry. Panel 2: Close-up of the crowd showing frowning faces holding pitchforks and torches, emphasizing their anger. Panel 3: The same stick figure on the cliff now says "I have boobs," with the crowd below visible. Panel 4: Close-up of the crowd, now smiling and happy, still holding pitchforks but with cheerful expressions. The meme satirizes how changing attention-seeking tactics (from direct upvote begging to invoking femininity) can alter public reaction.

A two-panel meme featuring Rick Sanchez from 'Rick and Morty'. Top panel: Rick, with his blue spiky hair and white lab coat, reaches up to tear a framed picture (depicting a green landscape with a yellow figure) off a beige wall, causing visible cracks around the frame. A blue vase with a spiky plant sits on a wooden cabinet to the left. Bottom panel: Rick stands in front of a larger torn section of the same wall, gesturing with both hands as if explaining something. He has a serious expression with furrowed brows. A text bubble contains his speech: 'The only way to make the great meme reset last long isn't just to reuse old memes over and over, but to make new meme templates with the old fashioned way, in order to maintain the movement fresh and ensuring it to stay appealing for the newer generations'.

A 6-panel comic meme depicting two medieval-style characters reacting to posting a meme. The orange-cloaked character initially instructs to 'drop the meme,' then panics after 3 minutes of no upvotes, demanding deletion. The blue-cloaked character begins deleting, but the orange-cloaked hesitates upon seeing 2 upvotes and a comment, only to ultimately demand 'Downvote. Delete it.' The comic satirizes the anxiety and overreaction of meme creators to social media engagement metrics, using medieval imagery (winch as a metaphor for posting/deleting, telescope for monitoring engagement) to humorously exaggerate the 'mental gymnastics' of seeking validation through upvotes.

This meme uses a tiered visual of surreal, godlike cosmic angel figures of decreasing size and perceived power to rank different approaches to writing academic essays. The largest, most powerful figure floating highest above the clouds is labeled as people who write their essays completely by themselves, framed as the most impressive, highest status group. The slightly smaller similar floating figure is labeled as people who write their own essays first then use AI only to correct mistakes, considered the second best option. The tiny, weak-looking hunched figures standing on the ground at the bottom of the scene are labeled as people who use AI to write their entire essay, framed as the lowest status, least impressive group. The joke exaggerates the perceived superiority of doing essay work fully manually over using AI assistance.

A meme image featuring a dramatic dark fantasy artwork. A towering, menacing armored figure with a massive, intricately designed sword dominates the scene, labeled 'Terrorist with a huge gun'. Below, a smaller, seemingly unarmed figure (labeled 'Unarmed middle-aged fruit shop owner') is depicted attacking the giant with a small knife. The background is a dark, apocalyptic sky with distant jagged structures, enhancing the dramatic contrast. The humor stems from the absurd mismatch between the imposing visual of the armored giant (implied to have a 'huge gun') and the trivial label of a 'terrorist', versus the underdog 'fruit shop owner' attacking, creating a satirical comparison.
