The sample captions are more detailed, so trim aggressively before posting on small screens. Before exporting, read the caption once without looking at the image; if it still needs a long explanation, switch to a simpler setup or a more obvious related template.

Common mistakes with this blank

  • Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Bubba And Barack image do part of the work.
  • Placing text over the most expressive part of the image, especially faces, gestures, signs, or the main action.
  • Using three different ideas in one meme. This template works better when it points at one clear situation.
  • Exporting before checking the meme at phone size. If the smallest words blur together, shorten the caption first.
