About

Me Picking My College Major, also known as Me Picking My Future Career, is an exploitable comparison image macro of a man throwing darts with his hand over his eyes versus an image of a hacker in front of six computer monitors. Meme creators who remix the template follow a phrasal template that's roughly "Me picking X / Me picking X," typically showing a humorous contrast between a more serious decision first and a more frivolous decision second. The first known posting of the image macro occurred on Instagram in March 2021. Remixes of the meme appeared across Facebook, Instagram and Twitter throughout the rest of 2021 and into 2022.

On March 3rd, 2021, the Instagram[1] page throwingfits posted the first meme using the template, using captions that read, "Me picking my college major / me picking a new jacket for spring." The image (shown below) received roughly 6,400 likes in one year.
