Nice feet

Description

The meme is a series of edited versions of a furry artwork, usually accompanied by the response "Nice feet", and the subsequent degenerations of the image. The original illustration was made by Nimrals on DeviantArt where a considerable amount of the responses are "nice feet". It is also sometimes refereed to as 23.jpg. The meme itself is SFW, but it is usually paired in NSFW situations as a sort of nonsensical answer. It is most commonly sighted in 4chan's board /b/ on /s/fur threads

Origin

As of now, thanks to the fleeting nature of 4chan's threads, it is hard to establish an origin date for the meme. The image itself was published on DeviantArt on May 17, 2013 by the artist Nimrals with the name Sweet Wine . Closer examination of the post's comments reveals a considerable gap; some are near the publication date, but most are post 2016. A comment from October 22, 2016 confirms "This is a meme on 4chan now."

Reaching a bit further, the first comment from a "non-furry" account is from November 4th, 2015, so this may be taken as a possible latest date for it's origin. This is because the meme must've had at least some notoriety for someone to go search for the image, and even more for them to comment on it.

Spread and popularization

The meme doesn't seem to have spread to much since it's origin date, being a rather hard task to find anything at all through conventional google searching. If anything, only the DeviantArt upload seems to show up. Other notable instances are a post on the site FunnyJunk which shows a type of "you've been visited" image, which was indexed to google on July 11, 2018, and a post on know your meme's forums on forums/discussion/ Q & A, made on sep 14, 2017. The post has no answers, and had been seen 3,260 times as of the making of this entry. It can be seen on google trends that there doesn't seem to be any change before and after the hypothesized origin date.

Image that usually starts the subsequent posting of edited versions. Also the first known meme appearance on a website outside of 4chan.

Examples

The image can be found on certain s/fur threads on 4chan, where usually, the first image will be posted with edited versions soon following. It is also found on collages with other memes, notably Ainsley Harriot . Answers consisting of "nice feet" or variations will be posted alongside edits, or as responses.
