AboutWhat does the meme depict?
The 'A Lot of Questions Already Answered by the Shirt' meme utilizes a snowclone format originating from a tweet. It typically features text stating that the wearer's shirt is prompting many questions, which are ironically and humorously self-answered by the shirt's own text. The phrase in quotes, designated as 'X', serves as the comedic twist, often proclaiming innocence in a suspicious context, like 'Not involved in human trafficking.'
OriginWho did it first?
The meme was initiated by comedian Mike Ginn via a post on Twitter (now X) on November 20th, 2013. His original tweet read: 'My "Not involved in human trafficking" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.' This tweet effectively set the template for the meme, garnering considerable engagement.[1]
