Jean-Luc Picard (0)Researching

Jean-Luc Picard is the fictional captain of the United Federation of Planets’ flagship, the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701D). As anyone who is familiar with the series will readily admit, he is one of the coolest characters ever dreamed up. He is like Sean Connery, Indiana Jones, Lex Luthor and King Solomon all rolled into one supremely ethical being.

Because Picard is an infallible source of truth, justice and reason invoking him to prove a point immediately grants credence to your opinion. Demonstrated below.

An artist by the name of DarkMateria has even gone so far as to create a song, entirely about the epicness that is Jean-Luc Picard

In my research I have come to the conclusion that the internet sees Picard as a kind of Father/arbitor figure, the use of Picard falls predominately in the category of rendering judgement

Since the interwebs are mostly used for flaming and the ilk pics such as this are most common

however, on the other hand, when a thread of suitable epicness needs to be recognized responses such as this are used

BTW, I think this epic meme’s strongest spawn are the YTMNDS… it was also the first really big YTMND meme, and the first one to break 1 million views (in 2005)

Isn’t there also something about saying you will post CP and then you post a picture of Captain Picard instead of the stuff that would get you thrown in jail?

Hey guys I just felt the need to point out that an internet artist known as DarkMateria actually created the song that you have attributed to anon. He also did a song about Worf and one based on the TNG episode Frame of Mind. He used to have a website devoted to star trek review but these parts of the site have since been taken down down. However his website http://tborgax.homepage.dk/ still hosts these three songs available for download.

The Picard song was definitely started on ytmnd as one of their biggest and most classic fads ever, rather than due to anonymous.

It’s probably worth noting that there are a whole bunch of YTMNDs for every Captain: Kirk, Janeway, Sisko, and even Pike, that made pretty significant rounds on the internets as well.
