This is a total flip of the intention of the source material, but in this moment (in the film) it reads in the character's voice. I think this is a good message buried in a questionable meme, unless I'm missing something. I'm old, so i used to be meta, but then they changed what meta was, and now what is meta is strange and scary to me.
i can’t recall the specifics but i don’t think you’re the first person i’ve seen to note this meme format is misused due to people who don’t know the source material well enough/don’t care
similar to how the spider-man glasses meme is also often used backwards
