The North West Friesian Horse meme originated when Kim Kardashian West shared photos of her daughter North's 7th birthday celebration at the family's Wyoming ranch, revealing they own 14 majestic, expensive Friesian horses. The internet immediately reacted to the sheer scale of wealth and the 'extra' nature of the gift compared to typical childhood presents. The meme is primarily used to highlight the extreme wealth gap between the average person and the Kardashian-Jenner clan, often featuring captions that compare mundane everyday achievements to the extravagant lifestyle of North West. It serves as a go-to template for satire regarding celebrity culture and high-society flexes.
