About

Before X Ends is an image macro featuring rapper J. Cole. It is often accompanied with the caption "Before (year) ends, anyone wanna admit they have a crush on me?"

Origin

The photograph of Cole was submitted to Meme Generator on January 1st, 2015 (shown below).[1]



Spread

Early variations of the image added text imploring users to admit they had a crush on the poster (examples shown below).

While the posts continued in earnest, the image was also commonly deep fried and used in various shitposts. For example, on September 22nd, 2017, Twitter user @papacone_[2] uploaded a version which replaced the text with "Before the world ends tomorrow," referring to a failed doomsday prophecy. The tweet gained over 50 retweets and 80 likes (shown below, left). On December 28th, 2017, Tumblr user comcastkills[3] uploaded a variation asking "Does anybody wanna establish socialism?", gaining over 14,000 notes (shown below, right).
