About

Utah Teapot is a 3D rendering of a teapot that grew into a popular character on the /r/surrealmemes subreddit in late April of 2017.

Origin

On April 29th, 2017, NocturneOpus9No2[1] posted an image macro of a Utah Teapot,[2] a standard reference object for computer graphics designers, to /r/surrealmemes. The image macro suggested that the teapot replace classic /r/surrealmeme characters Meme Man and Mr. Orange, "renewing" the subreddit. The post gained 655 points (shown below).


when vou have to no more meme man no more orang only teapot start over

Spread

The post sparked dozens of posts in the subreddit regarding the teapot. Many referenced the first post's assertion that the teapot should replace Meme Man and Mr. Orange, leading to posts showing the two in conflict. One popular post by nicube[3] gained over 800 points (shown below). The spread lead to an inquiry on /r/OutOfTheLoop,[4] where NocturneOpus9No2 confirmed that the teapot was in fact the Utah Teapot.

So what you're telling me is r/surrealmemes is kind of the rebirth of "lolrandom", except replace wacky and unpredictable with just kind of weird and with a dose of something I'm not sure I would call surreal?
