About

I Know She Be Running A McDonald's Like It's The Navy refers to an image macro of a stocky woman in a tuxedo vest posing on a porch with the caption, "i know she be running a mcdonalds like its the navy." It was originally posted to Twitter in October 2019 but received attention across platforms like Instagram going into 2020. In late 2021, the meme saw new usage as a phrasal template across Twitter. In early 2023, many cis female and lesbian TikTokers discovered the woman's Tumblr blog called bigtallbutchstyle and started sharing slideshows of her fit pics.

On October 29th, 2019, the now-suspended Twitter account @pandappIes (pandappies) tweeted the original version of the meme. A full screenshot of the tweet (shown below, left) was posted to Instagram[1] on December 27th, 2019, that included @pandappIes' handle. However, as evidence of a late October origin, replies to the original tweet can still be accessed. For instance, on October 29th, 2021, Twitter[2] user @GeorgiieeR replied to the original tweet. His reply (shown below, right) received 566 likes over the course of two years.
