The Girl Explaining Meme and Its VariationsA simple picture that circulated in Argentina and more of the Spanish-speaking world in 2019 has become a huge meme in English in just the past few weeks. According to Know Your Meme, the girl is Denise Sanchez, and the picture was taken at a concert in 2018. Sanchez and her boyfriend were not the subject of the original photograph; they were in the background. Someone thought they would make a neat illustration for any kind of explanation, particularly any kind of reverse mansplaining. It worked well for that purpose as a response to earlier memes such as Guy Explaining and Bro Explaining.
Another Photo of Putin's Long Table Sparked Even More More Internet MemesFollowing the infamous meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron that launched a thousand memes of comically lengthy meeting table, Russian leader Vladimir Putin is yet again in another table saga.A televised meeting between Putin, foreign minister Sergei Lavrov and Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu made its way online and the internet once again had a field day. Image of Putin sitting at the end of an absurdly long table while his deputies sat at the other end has attracted hordes of hilarious reactions in social media. One meme had the table edited to resemble a sushi conveyor belt. Another photoshopped it to look like a bowling alley. One very creative poster even parodied an IKEA ad selling an extremely long table named “Putin”. One theory suggests that the measure was taken due to Putin’s paranoia of contracting COVID-19.Image above: @mrsahuquillo/Twitter​#Putin #table #meme #COVID19
Making Memes of the Macron-Putin MeetingFrench President Emmanuel Macron traveled to Moscow on Monday to discuss Ukraine with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The meeting between the two men lasted five hours, and took place across an enormous table, estimated to have been up to 20 feet long! The reason for the weird setup was because Macron did not want to take a Russian Covid-19 test, and this was Putin's alternative. The photograph of the meeting was stark, and immediately went viral for its comedic possibilities. The TV show Full Frontal with Samantha Bee invited Twitter users to post Photoshopped memes of this table.
