This month’s meme is “What in Tarnation?” Derived from the rhetorical question “what in damnation,” it is a parody of a phrase used often in the South in order to express confusion. Additionally, the meme focuses on different objects or ideas and can take on different spellings or forms, such as “wot.”  More often than not, the phrase is accompanied by a picture with a cowboy hat edited onto its focus. Overall, this meme pokes fun at Southerners and their culture.
