About

Alternative Responses to "I Love You" refers to an Alignment Chart exploitable in which characters from various pieces of media are paired with unusual responses to being told "I love you." The responses are taken from a Tumblr text post and the chart parodies began appearing in May of 2018.

Origin

On November 25th, 2017, Tumblr user salemwitchhunterofficial[1] posted a text post titled "Alternative Responses to "I Love You" which showcased a list of unusual and humorous responses to being told "I love you." The post gained over 27,000 notes (shown below).

Precursor

The ensuing charts made with the "alternative responses" bear resemblance to the Zelda's Response exploitable, which also paired different characters from pieces of media with various responses to "I love you." This meme spread in 2012.
