Overall, when creating a Gumbo Slice image with Midjourney, it's important to include a few keywords and phrases in order to perfectly generate the character and his surrounding scene. These include:

  • Heavyset, bearded, bald and shirtless Black man
  • Alligator or crocodile
  • Swap or bog
  • Camouflage pants or shorts
  • Pepperoni pizza

Once you have those visuals listed in your prompt, you can add any number of extra descriptions to generate an even more elaborate photo. Some are showing Gumbo Slice and the alligator getting married, playing video games and even arriving at the MET Gala.

Also, other than Midjourney, two other popular AI art generators are Stable Diffusion and Bing Image Creator. You can use either of them to create memes as well. It's all about preference.
