Use a gun next time (But i dont think you have a next time)
Overview
This meme is a screenshot of a 2018 Twitter exchange paired with a title caption. First, Twitter user Sarah Beattie (@nachosarah) tweets that when a man tells her he owns a gun, she assumes it is overcompensation for having a small penis. A reply from user David Dennison delivers a dark, absurd punchline: he jokes that the last time he tried to use his penis to fend off a home intruder, he faced severe negative consequences including police disapproval, the intruder requiring counseling, and being added to an official registry, so he recommends using a gun instead. The joke subverts the original tweet's premise about gun ownership as overcompensation by taking the crass implication to an absurd, humorous extreme.
Origin notes
The core content of the meme is a public exchange posted to Twitter on November 20, 2018. It was later reposted as a meme to the r/foundsatan subreddit on Reddit by user u/Mr-SmileySan, with the added title 'Use a gun next time (But i dont think you have a next time)'. It circulates as a popular crass dark humor meme across social media platforms, especially Reddit.
