The video itself is not a meme but “My spoon is too big/I’m a banana!” M=might be a meme.

I’ll go ahead and change the title to “My Spoon is too big” since that’s probably the most notable meme spawned from Rejected.

I could see the possibility in this, but I haven’t ever heard of it before.

This looks very similar to the Pop-tarts commercials IMHO – does anyone know if there’s a connection?

Why isn’t “My anus is bleeding” as popular? I would use that over the banana thing because it’s more obscene, and obscene things tend to get more lulz. I guess the banana meme is easier to share without offending anyone…

I’ve seen “My anus is bleeding” and “My spoon is too big/I am a banana” on shirts before, so I’d say those are popular enough to be memes. The other bits of the video didn’t take off as well as those did.
