The 'Don't Talk To Me Or My Son Ever Again' meme features a catchphrase used to caption photos of a large object standing next to a smaller, identical version of itself. The meme originated on Tumblr in 2014 with a photo of a large Cowboy Bebop figurine next to a tiny one, but it exploded in popularity in 2015 when it began featuring animals like cats and dogs. It humorously parodies defensive parental behavior by applying it to inanimate objects, video game characters, or pets in absurdly different sizes. Today, the format is a staple for highlighting dramatic scale differences or mocking overprotective attitudes in a lighthearted, relatable way.
