In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “For sûr” is an epic card of the Memes FR pack, number 1273 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3496 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “For sûr” meme mean?
The line stands for the automatic, off-topic answer delivered with total confidence. It sounds like an English “for sure” run through a French accent, and the laugh comes from the gap between the swagger and the lack of content. People use it to answer any question when they have nothing to say, to tease anyone faking mastery of a foreign language, or to end an absurd conversation. It works instantly, especially when repeated several times in a row.
Where does the “For sûr” meme come from?
The sequence comes from the hidden-camera work of François Damiens, a Belgian comedian born in Uccle on 17 January 1973. He started in 1999 as a production assistant on Si c’était vous, a hidden-camera show on RTL TVI, then became a permanent host and created the grumpy, bad-faith character François l’Embrouille. After stopping his shoots in Belgium in 2004, he moved to France, where his pranks aired on Canal+ and online. In this clip, a group of English women asks if he speaks English. He answers “for sûr” to every question, over and over. The moment keeps circulating as a video and a meme.
