The 'Minion or Da Bob' meme is a surreal internet trend that originated from viral social media videos, most notably on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. It typically involves a distorted voice or a low-quality filter asking the viewer to choose between a Minion from the Despicable Me franchise and 'Da Bob,' a colloquial shorthand for SpongeBob SquarePants. Associated with the 'brain rot' subculture of Gen Alpha humor, the meme thrives on its absurdity, low-fidelity audio, and nonsensical stakes. It has since evolved into a popular 'this or that' template where users apply the audio to various weird or funny binary choices across the internet.
