The Fallout meme category primarily stems from the iconic RPG series, featuring the cheerful mascot Vault Boy and various in-game UI notifications. The most famous variation, 'Everyone Liked That,' originated from the companion affinity system in Fallout 4, where a small notification appears in the corner of the screen based on the player's moral choices. These memes are widely used to react to news or social media trends, satirizing public consensus with a retro-futuristic aesthetic. Following the massive success of the Fallout television series, these templates have evolved to include live-action characters, continuing the legacy of using wasteland survival logic to explain modern-day situations.
