The 'Look What You Made Me Do' meme stems from the lead single of Taylor Swift's 2017 album, Reputation. The phrase and its accompanying dramatic imagery quickly became a shorthand for shifting blame onto others for one's own reactions or transformations. It captures a sense of theatrical pettiness or justified revenge, often used when someone feels pushed to their limit by a minor inconvenience. Internet users frequently pair the text with images of intense facial expressions, historical figures, or even pets to mock the idea of being 'forced' into a specific behavior.
