About

Parallel Lines refers to an exploitable image demonstrating the definition of parallel lines, two lines which are the same distance apart and never touch. In the exploitable edits, the lines are labeled different things to make a humorous point about how two different objects never intersect.

Origin

On January 29th, 2018, Redditor shadesofgabe uploaded an image of parallel lines to /r/dankmemes,[1] making a "mods are gay" joke typical to the subreddit. The post gained over 21,000 upvotes (shown below).

Redditor Omrriii[3] uploaded a joke about how the format was destined to be quickly overused, gaining over 180 upvotes (shown below, right).
