The 'Everyone Disliked That' and 'Everyone Liked That' memes are inspired by the companion affinity system in the 2015 video game Fallout 4. In the game, players receive notifications in the corner of the screen indicating how their choices affect their relationships with followers. The meme adaptation typically features a news headline followed by the edited Fallout UI notification to represent a universal public reaction. While 'Everyone Disliked That' gained massive traction as a way to mock unpopular corporate decisions, the 'Everyone Liked That' variant emerged as a wholesome alternative to celebrate positive news.
