The 'Photograph' meme stems from the 2005 music video for the hit song by the Canadian rock band Nickelback. In the opening scene, lead singer Chad Kroeger holds up a framed photograph of himself and the band's producer, reminiscing about the past. While the song was initially a serious power ballad, the internet transformed the moment into a versatile comedy template. It gained massive popularity through various parodies, most notably the 'Look at this graph' edit, which replaced the photo with a mathematical chart. Today, the meme is used to mock nostalgia, showcase absurd data, or highlight cringe-worthy images by placing them directly into Chad's hands.
