The Suicide Squad meme originates from the popular DC Comics franchise and its cinematic adaptations, centering on a team of incarcerated supervillains recruited for high-risk missions. While the characters themselves are iconic, the meme typically focuses on the concept of a 'ragtag team' or 'squad goals' featuring unlikely or chaotic individuals. It gained massive traction online following the 2016 film's marketing campaign, particularly with the line 'We're the bad guys, it's what we do.' Users leverage this template to ironically showcase their own friend groups, coworkers, or sports teams as a band of lovable but dysfunctional outsiders ready for a challenge.
