AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The "Say the Line, Bart!" meme features a three-panel format from an episode of The Simpsons. The first panel shows Bart Simpson's classmates looking at him expectantly. In the second panel, Bart looks somewhat resigned as he prepares to deliver his catchphrase. The third panel captures the jubilation of his classmates after he speaks. Typically, in this meme, the actual line Bart says is creatively altered for humorous effect.

OriginWho did it first?

This meme is derived from a scene in The Simpsons episode titled "Bart Gets Famous," which originally aired on February 3, 1994. The specific scene features a moment where Milhouse asks Bart to "say the line," prompting Bart to dejectedly state, "I didn't do it," which leads to an enthusiastic reaction from his classmates. The template for the meme can be connected to this Wikipedia article. Additionally, the scene can be viewed here on YouTube.[1]
