AboutWhat does the meme depict?
The 'Call An Ambulance But Not For Me' meme features a two-panel image macro. In the first panel, an elderly man is threatened by a younger male wielding a knife. In the second panel, the narrative twist occurs when the older man pulls out a gun, effectively reversing the roles of victim and assailant. The images are typically accompanied by overlay text that highlights this unexpected switch, playing on the theme of the intended victim gaining the upper hand unexpectedly.
OriginWho did it first?
The meme originated from a clip posted on Facebook on August 30th, 2018, by the page Las Vegas Gunfights with the title 'Call an ambulance'. This video is part of a 'Silver Series Self-Defense' advertisement aimed at Las Vegas residents aged 65 and above. The clip was also shared on the Las Vegas Gunfights' YouTube channel on September 5th, 2018.[1]
