Encyclopedia Dramatica should have the original picture. It came from an anti-porn ad that says “Pornography? In my computer?”

I just noticed, the “I could end up… where?” photo does not contain a centipede, but a millipede. Easy mistake to make. Kind of.

The first instance of this I saw (which I can’t find) showed a stylized drawing of Satan, and the caption “Spartans? In MY kitchen?”

I ponder out loud of an inquisitive Xzibit saying “A Meme? In My Meme?” incurring a jolly good laugh.

I usually only see “Originality? In MY /a/ or /b/?” (depending on which board I’m currently lurking in.) Never new it was from an image macro.
