About
“Gentlemen” is one of many character catchphrases that comes from the Source game Team Fortress 2 by Valve Software.
The game’s “Spy” character frequently uttered “Gentlemen”, then puts a cigarette in his mouth.
From this the ’chans created an image macro. An OP starts a thread with the Gentlemen image, others reply with the same, ad infinitum, and the universe divides by zero.
One of the originals:
…many MS Paint remixes followed.
“Gentlemen” was even one of many memes used in /b/’s infamous trolling of Tom Green.
On 4chan, June 5th has been declared the “Gentlemen’s Holiday” which bans the use of the “Gentlemen” or the starting of a “Gentlemen” thread on any day but June 5th.

A likely source of the Gentlemen image with all the cigarettes could come from the Simpsons episode ‘Marge vs. the Monorail.’ http://www.watchcartoononline.com/the-simpsons-episode-412-marge-vs-the-monorail Go to 12:49 in the video when Homer is announced as the conductor.
