Common mistakes with this blank

  • Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Friendship ended with X, now Y is my best friend 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.
