THAT'S HOW YOU X MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

The 'That's How You X' meme is a direct reference to a recurring gag from the animated series Archer, first appearing in the pilot episode in 2009. The character Sterling Archer uses the phrase 'Do you want ants? Because that's how you get ants!' to scold others for leaving food out. The internet quickly adapted this rigid logic into a versatile template for any scenario where an action leads to an inevitable, usually annoying, result. It is widely used in tech circles to mock bad coding habits, in parenting to describe household chaos, and in general social commentary to highlight the direct consequences of poor decision-making.
