The APUSH Milk meme became a staple of the Advanced Placement United States History community, particularly on platforms like Reddit and TikTok during the grueling spring exam season. It typically features a character intensely consuming milk, representing a student desperately absorbing information from study guides or historical YouTube creators. The meme serves as a relatable badge of honor for students navigating the complexities of the DBQ and LEQ formats, turning the shared trauma of historical dates and periodizations into a lighthearted inside joke that unites thousands of test-takers every year.
