In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Bouli “Tout le monde sait”” is a mythic card of the Memes FR pack, number 1198 of the collection, and the 757th best-known meme of its 1050 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Bouli “Tout le monde sait”” meme mean?
The whole meme is three words. “Tout le monde sait” never says what everybody knows: the reader finishes the sentence with whatever they already believe. The line assumes everyone agrees, then is mostly used to slip in an opinion many would dispute, and that gap is the joke. Bouli’s face does the rest: two big black eyes, a red nose, a smile that never moves. A children’s hero from the nineties who looks like he knows everything about the news is funny to the people who grew up with him, and just odd enough for those who did not.
Where does the “Bouli “Tout le monde sait”” meme come from?
Bouli is a French animated series created by Daniel and Roger Voinson and broadcast between 1989 and 1991 on Antenne 2, now France 2. It runs to 114 episodes, 78 of four minutes and 36 of seven. The premise starts with children’s sadness when snowmen melt in spring: the moon brings Bouli, his family and his friends back to life in a magic land where they can play without melting. Voice actress Brigitte Lecordier plays the hero. The meme itself comes from X and the account @bouliboulibouli. According to the French site Le Mal Pensant, which traced its story, the account dates from June 2013 and became far more active in early 2025, replying to news posts, CNEWS in particular, with the picture of Bouli and the same line every time. By May 2025 it was nearing 97,000 followers, and a longer version had appeared: “Tout le monde sait, mais personne ne le dit” (“Everybody knows, but nobody says it”).
