About

Matching Icons, often followed by the phrase "for you and your friends" or "for you and the bae," are a series of photosets featuring two or more avatar images of fictional characters from manga/animes and TV shows that humorously complement each other(s).

Origin

The earliest known instance of matching icons was uploaded by Tumblr user Dodocity on September 7th, 2012. The post featured two symmetrically inverted images of Peter Parker from Spider-Man.
