About
Musically Oblivious 8th Grader (also abbreviated as “MO8G”) is an image macro series based on a picture of a girl with blatantly misinformed or laughable statements about a well-known artist or a song. This computational joke consists of two parts: 1) name of artist or song, question mark; 2) creative punchline implying “I don’t have a clue who or what that is.”
Origin
Musically Oblivious 8th Grader was created by Tumblr user Grace[1] using a cutout image of her friend Emileina as the blank exploitable on MemeGenerator[2].
Spread
The joke quickly spread via social networking sites, Tumblr[3] and 4chan[4], especially on /mu/ (music board). The macro series has been also picked up by internet humor sites like QuickMeme[5], Memebase[6] and FunnyJunk[7] among others. As of April 2010, Musically Oblivious 8th Grader series is ranked at demigod tier and there is a single topic Tumblr[8] dedicated to the series, though contributions have ceased since December 2009.

Biggest problem with this meme is that it’s clearly made by dickhead music snobs. I mean, oh wow! An 8th grader hasn’t heard of A Day To Remember or Beirut? Guess what. VERY FEW PEOPLE HAVE.
