JESUS CHRIST IT’S A LION GET IN THE CAR originated on August 30th, 2005 in the webcomic Toothpaste For Dinner.

In February 2006 image posted on 4chans /b/ board. Accompanying the picture was the text “ALL I LERNED IN COLEGE” Eventually a user posted >:3-in-a-circle face with the text “RAWR I AM A LION”.

After that infamous post it was reposted and reposted and eventually spread and has since become the classic meme it is reagarded as today.

Google insights suggest its on a gradual decline in popularity but is still a known phrase.

Well, it’s stated in the “Rules of the Internet”, so that’s something to build off of.

“When one sees a lion, one must get into the car.”

How did the lion emoticon become tied into the phrase? Did the lion emoticon originate with this meme?

it was posted in the same thread as where the “its a lion get in the car” and as a result people mash them together all the time as one meme.

I prefer the more subtle panels of a character, then seeing a lion, then they’re suddenly in a car, like the Gladiator one above.
