GTA 6 Releasing Before Anyone Goes To Jail Meme

This is a 3-panel meme using stills of the Pablo Escobar character from the Netflix series *Narcos* showing him waiting idly in different locations, paired with a top caption reading "WE'RE REALLY GETTING GTA VI BEFORE ANY OF THEM GOES TO JAIL". The joke satirizes the extremely long, heavily delayed development cycle of the *Grand Theft Auto VI* video game, emphasizing that fans have waited so long for the game's release that it feels plausible the game will launch even before notoriously difficult-to-apprehend criminals (or the depicted characters who avoided incarceration for long periods) are sent to jail.

This meme uses a viral red carpet event photograph of Paul Dano and Quentin Tarantino as its base. Paul Dano appears in the foreground with a faint, distracted smile while looking down, overlaid with the text label 'everyone waiting for gta 6'. Quentin Tarantino stands directly behind Dano, staring forward with an intense, menacing unblinking expression, overlaid with the text label 'some hentai virus'. The joke illustrates that people eagerly anticipating the release of the highly popular Grand Theft Auto 6 video game are so distracted by their excitement that they are vulnerable to malware attacks disguised as GTA 6 leaks, early access downloads, or exclusive content, particularly pornographic (hentai) themed malware that commonly targets users searching for unannounced game content.

This is a gaming meme referencing the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 release. The top text poses the common fan question: 'Why won't Rockstar release GTA 6 on PC day one?'. Below this, a line of text reads 'GTA 6 on PC day one:' followed by the official promotional art for GTA 6 showing the game's two protagonists, Jason and Lucia, pointing guns directly towards the viewer. The joke implies that a day one PC release of GTA 6 would be so poorly optimized, ridden with bugs, or otherwise broken that it would feel like the game is attacking its players, which is the reason Rockstar traditionally delays PC ports of their major titles to fix issues first.

This three-panel meme uses the popular sad Pablo Escobar reaction template from the *Narcos* TV series to make a joke about Nintendo's well-known aggressive copyright protection practices. The joke's premise is that Yoshi, Nintendo's iconic green dinosaur character from the Mario franchise, is based on a dinosaur, a species that went extinct millions of years before Nintendo created the character. Therefore, Nintendo cannot actually sue anyone for copyright infringement against dinosaurs because the allegedly infringing party is already extinct. The three panels show escalating disappointment and resignation from Nintendo's perspective.

Overlaid text on the image reads "Me getting executed in 2027 for using a VPN".
