About

Terry The Fat Shark refers to an image macro of a shark who is usually posted on Wednesdays appearing to bear a "gift" as a "token of friendship." The caption of each Terry meme promises he will return the following Wednesday with a new gift.

Origin

Terry the Fat Shark was first posted to /r/dankmemes[2] on March 6th, 2019 by Redditor Ecstatic_Pickle, gaining over 4,800 points before the meme was deleted by moderators for being "normie trash." On March 20th, 2019, Redditor Aphex_tw1n reposted the first Terry the Fat Shark image in /r/oddlyspecific,[1] gaining over 1,100 points in roughly a year and a half. Terry presents a shrimp.

On June 3rd, Imgur user ImYourBiologicalStepDadUncleRob[4] posted an example that gained over 110,000 views on the platform (shown below, right).
