The 'Jingled' meme, often associated with the character Joe Jingles, functions as a holiday-themed 'Rickroll' or bait-and-switch prank. It typically features a festive character accompanied by the phrase 'Uh oh! You just got Jingled,' encouraging the viewer to pass the prank along to others. Originating on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter during the mid-2010s, it serves as a lighthearted way to disrupt online threads with unexpected Christmas cheer. The meme's longevity is tied to its seasonal relevance, resurfacing every December as a nostalgic and slightly annoying way to 'prank' friends across various social media groups and messaging apps.
