Where does the “Jean-Mi du 13” meme come from?
The number “13” refers to the Bouches-du-Rhône department in southeastern France, whose administrative capital is Marseille.

The phrase then spread as a standalone catchphrase, used to caption any scene where someone adopts this recognizable regional register, without referring to a specific individual.
