In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Askiparait are you talking about me?” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 2283 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3493 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Askiparait are you talking about me?” meme mean?

The line is a spoken-style distortion of the French “à ce qu’il paraît, tu parles de moi”, meaning roughly “apparently you’re talking about me”. The speaker has heard a rumor and demands an explanation, voice raised. It carries hurt pride, suspicion and a readiness to argue, yet the caricature makes it funny instead of tense. Francophone users deploy it to pretend to be offended by a rumor, to tease a friend who mentioned their exploits, or to react to a notification that concerns them. With the first name up front, it works like a playground accusation.

Where does the “Askiparait are you talking about me?” meme come from?

The phrase comes from an amateur video that spread on YouTube in the early 2010s. In it, a person calls out a girl named Andréa for supposedly talking about them, in a phonetic spelling that gave birth to the word “askiparait”. Several uploads of the scene circulated under titles such as “Andreaaa askiparait tu parles de moi!” and meme-compilation channels picked up the clip. It was then turned into ringtones, remixes and a hashtag, and even inspired a music video called “#Askiparait”. The line entered everyday internet vocabulary well beyond the original footage.
