JONATHAN COULTON THE FIRST OF MAY OUTDOOR FCKING STARTS TODAY MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

The 'First of May' video meme originates from the 2003 song of the same name by folk-rock artist Jonathan Coulton, featured on his album 'Smoking Monkey'. While the song itself is the source, the meme was popularized through various early internet music videos, most notably a 2006 World of Warcraft machinima by the creator Spiffworld. The scene captures the essence of spring with a pleasant acoustic melody that abruptly pivots to the crude but enthusiastic lyrics celebrating the start of outdoor activities. It is a 'seasonal' meme that resurfaces every year on May 1st, used to represent the literal or metaphorical transition from the cold, repressed winter months to the liberated warmth of spring. This clip is frequently used to express seasonal horniness, the joy of the first warm day of the year, or the humor found in 'wholesome' sounding music containing NSFW content. Example captions include: 'Me the second it hits 60 degrees outside,' 'The neighbors' POV when I finally open my windows,' and 'The official anthem of the spring equinox.'
