YOUTUBE THINKS I'LL BUY A SUBSCRIPTION TO DOWNLOAD VIDEOS, WHEN THERE'S HUNDREDS OF WEBSITES THAT DOES THAT FOR FREE WITH JUST A LINK KINDLY RETURN THIS CARD

Overview

A two-panel meme combining a scene from the 2019 film 'Joker' with custom text cards. The top panel shows Arthur Fleck (Joker) experiencing uncontrollable laughter on a bus, with a child looking on. The bottom panel displays two cards: the left reads 'PLEASE FORGIVE MY LAUGHTER' (referencing Joker's condition), and the right humorously mocks YouTube's subscription model: 'YOUTUBE THINKS I'LL BUY A SUBSCRIPTION TO DOWNLOAD VIDEOS, WHEN THERE'S HUNDREDS OF WEBSITES THAT DOES THAT FOR FREE WITH JUST A LINK KINDLY RETURN THIS CARD'. The meme uses Joker's iconic laughter to sarcastically contrast YouTube's paid download option with free third-party video download websites.

Origin notes

This meme originates from Reddit's Meme community. It is a remix, utilizing a screenshot from the 2019 film 'Joker' (original scene of Arthur Fleck's laughter) edited to include custom text on cards. The modification repurposes the movie scene to comment on the common practice of using free video download websites instead of paying for YouTube Premium subscriptions.

This is a two-panel reaction meme that expresses a common feeling among YouTube users about overly frequent content uploads. The top panel pairs text reading 'Oh this YouTuber seems cool / I might subscribe to them' with a photo of a Black man smiling happily and excitedly at the new creator. The bottom panel reveals the disappointing downside: the creator posts 4 to 5 full-length 10-20 minute videos every single day, paired with the same man showing a shocked, disappointed, turned-off expression. The joke is relatable to anyone who avoids subscribing to creators that flood their subscription feed with far more content than they can keep up with, turning initial excitement into instant disappointment.

This two-panel meme features Squidward Tentacles from the animated series *SpongeBob SquarePants* to satirize deceptive free subscription offers. The top panel shows Squidward happily arranging a blue lounge chair, paired with the text "Free subscription for a month"—depicting the initial excitement of a seemingly great, no-cost offer. The bottom panel shows Squidward scowling while dragging the chair away, paired with "Enter your card details"—capturing the frustration and distrust people feel when they realize the "free" offer requires sensitive payment information, revealing the hidden catch (auto-renewing paid subscriptions that users often forget to cancel). The joke relies on relatable frustration with common marketing tactics that exploit users' desire for free services, using visual contrast to highlight the shift from enthusiasm to annoyance.

This is a two-panel meme using the popular Chad vs Virgin comparison template to contrast the user experience of Reddit and YouTube. The left panel features the muscular, confident 'Chad' stock image with the Reddit logo covering his face, paired with three positive bullet points highlighting Reddit's user-friendly features: allowing free video and image downloads, displaying non-intrusive visible ads, and making content sharing easy. The right panel features the awkward, unappealing 'Virgin' stock image with the YouTube logo covering his face, paired with three negative bullet points criticizing YouTube's unfriendly policies: locking video downloads behind a paywall, placing excessive intrusive ads across the platform, and making content sharing difficult. The meme humorously positions Reddit as the far more user-preferable platform over YouTube.

This four-panel meme uses the popular 'gradually applying clown makeup' template to humorously and relatably depict a common experience for Reddit users: 1. **Panel 1**: A neutral real person, paired with text: *'Goes to a subreddit that helps people'* 2. **Panel 2**: The person begins applying clown eye makeup, with text: *'Asks for help on said subject'* 3. **Panel 3**: The person puts on a rainbow clown wig, with text: *'Gets downvoted and insulted'* 4. **Panel 4**: The person is fully transformed into a clown (with full face paint, wig, and red nose), paired with text: *'Stays on reddit anyways'* The joke frames the user as a 'clown' for continuing to use Reddit despite facing negative feedback when seeking support, highlighting the frustrating yet addictive nature of the platform for many users.

This is a two-panel meme that jokes about Reddit's voting and coin system. The top panel shows a friend asking the meme creator: *"Bro why tf are you still downvoting posts? You do know you get free coins from upvotes right?"* The bottom panel features Heath Ledger's Joker from the 2008 film *The Dark Knight*, with the iconic line: *"It's not about money... it's about sending a message."* The humor comes from framing deliberate downvoting (a Reddit user action to signal disapproval) as a principled, chaotic act rather than a self-serving one—mirroring the Joker's anti-establishment, motive-driven chaos in the movie, contrasting with the practical incentive of earning Reddit coins via upvotes.
