Meme: “You think this text can stop me?” 👻🗡️

 

I first saw this trend play out from a jilted lover approaching the camera to confront their relationship drama head-on. I found it amusing but I wasn’t going to blog it, not until I saw Ghostface adopt the format to promote Scream7 for Paramount Pictures, and I knew then that the answer justified the memes: No, text will not stop me either; it provokes 👊

Practical VFX artist Zack King often breaks the fourth wall in his videos, and I think with him is where the trend has peaked, and can stop, please.

The meme’s originator is Xylihun, and it’s obvious when viewed as part of his collected style:
