Just realized the butter robot meme has almost 500 variations on Know Your Meme

I was scrolling through Know Your Meme last night and saw they listed like 487 different butter robot edits going back to 2015. That surprised me because I thought the whole 'what is my purpose' thing was just a handful of images going around. Does anyone else get overwhelmed trying to pick the best one to share?

Honestly having fewer options forces people to be more creative with their memes, having almost 500 just means most of them are probably garbage nobody will ever see.

Ngl I gotta push back on that a little bit. Having more options doesn't automatically mean most of them are garbage. You're right that having too many choices can be overwhelming, but 500 isn't really that many when you think about how many people are posting. Honestly the real issue is that most meme libraries just aren't organized well, so good ones get buried. Tbh if the site let you search or tag stuff better, those hidden gems would actually get seen.
