The 'This Looks Shopped' meme is one of the oldest and most enduring catchphrases in internet history, originating from a 2006 Photoshop Essentials forum thread. It typically features the full phrase: 'I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time.' Originally used to smugly point out manipulated images, the phrase evolved into a self-deprecating joke often used on obviously fake or surreal images for comedic effect. It serves as a tribute to the early days of message board culture and remains the go-to response for questioning digital authenticity.
