The Normal Distribution meme, often referred to as the Bell Curve or Midwit meme, gained massive popularity on platforms like 4chan, Reddit, and X around 2020. The template features a statistical bell curve with three distinct characters: a simple-looking person on the low-IQ end, a frustrated 'Midwit' in the average-IQ center, and an enlightened, hooded figure on the high-IQ end. The humor stems from the concept that the simplest and most complex perspectives often reach the exact same conclusion, while the average person struggles with unnecessary complexity in the middle. It has become a staple for critiquing over-intellectualized arguments in finance, tech, and gaming culture.
