HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW AMERICANS
Overview
A meme featuring a man in a red hoodie and gray 'MUSIC BAND' shirt holding a skateboard over his shoulder. Text overlays include 'HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW AMERICANS' in yellow at the bottom and 'Account based in Mumbai, India' at the top right. The image satirizes inauthentic attempts to fit into a cultural group (Americans) by contrasting the character's exaggerated 'American' appearance with the Mumbai location tag, creating irony.
Origin notes
The character is Frank Reynolds from the TV show 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' (played by Danny DeVito). The meme uses a screenshot edited with text overlays, likely created by users on platforms like Twitter/X or Reddit. The original scene is from the show, but the context is altered to add comedic irony through the location tag, mocking accounts that pretend to be part of a culture they're not.
![A simple stick figure drawing featuring a stick figure with a rectangular head (two horizontal lines for eyes) on the left, holding a stick and pointing toward a stylized map of the United States. The US map is colored with the American flag (red and white stripes, blue field with white stars). To the right of the stick figure, the text reads 'C'mon, do a Nepal...' in black font. The humor relies on the phrase 'do a [X]' (implying performing an action associated with X), suggesting the US should mimic Nepal, creating an absurd or sarcastic request.](https://gagbase.com/i/c/memes/e5/fb/b4/11/e5fbb411c4b528367e7bcad1c21b61c9.jpeg.webp)
![This is a 2-panel reaction meme using the well-known Mr Bean exam cheating scene template. In the first panel, the student sitting on the left is labeled 'Europe', focused on writing on his exam paper, while Mr. Bean sitting to his right is labeled 'Americans naming cities' and is sneakily glancing at Europe's paper. In the second panel, Europe looks up with an annoyed, surprised expression at Mr. Bean, who is caught looking, with text next to Mr. Bean reading '"New [City name]"'. The joke satirizes the common naming convention used for many United States cities, where the prefix 'New' is added to the name of an existing European city for newly established settlements, such as New York, New Orleans, New Hampshire, and New London.](https://gagbase.com/i/c/memes/96/58/df/90/9658df90d3c4d5bf9899ba1e9a441daa.jpeg.webp)
