The “Oh mon dieu, ils ont tué Kenny !” meme, 1997

In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Oh mon dieu, ils ont tué Kenny !” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 865 of the collection, and the 498th best-known meme of its 869 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Oh mon dieu, ils ont tué Kenny !” meme mean?

The card announces a disaster with suspicious calm, because it was predictable. It fits something breaking for the third time, someone being sanctioned exactly as expected, or bad news that surprises nobody any more. The second beat, the insult, is what makes the line: first the observation, then the accusation.

Where does the “Oh mon dieu, ils ont tué Kenny !” meme come from?

South Park, created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, began airing in 1997 on Comedy Central. In the early seasons, the character Kenny dies in almost every episode, and his death is systematically commented on by Stan (“Oh my God, they killed Kenny!”) and then Kyle (“You bastards!”). The pair of lines has circulated on its own ever since, as an extract and as a quotation, well beyond the show's audience: it is now used for any repeated loss.
