INTERNETS MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

The 'Internets' meme originated from a slip of the tongue by U.S. President George W. Bush during the second presidential debate in 2004 against John Kerry. When discussing rumors of a military draft, Bush famously stated, 'I hear there’s rumors on the, uh, internets.' The pluralization of the word immediately became a symbol of the digital divide and the perceived lack of technical savvy among the older political elite. Over time, the term evolved into a playful way for internet users to refer to the world wide web, often used when someone says something incredibly obvious or outdated about technology. Today, it remains a cornerstone of early internet culture and a go-to template for poking fun at misunderstood technology.
