Spread

As the image grew more popular, the format changed from the original image macro iteration posted by kingarthurofgeek and became used more commonly used as a reaction image paired with captions. For example, a post to Imgur from April 21st, 2016 used it in that way (shown below, left). Another posted to MemeCenter[2] in May of that year also followed that format (shown below, right).
