In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “La boulette” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 3600 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3495 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “La boulette” meme mean?
In French slang, a “boulette” is an embarrassing mistake, a misstep made with no bad intent but with awkward consequences. The catchy song title is now used to caption that kind of moment: a message sent to the wrong person, an embarrassing slip, or an impulsive decision that goes wrong.
Where does the “La boulette” meme come from?
“La Boulette” is a track by French rapper Diam’s, released as a single in 2006 and taken from her third studio album, “Dans ma bulle.” Carried by a catchy chorus and lyrics describing risky life choices embraced with lightness, the song became a major popular hit at the time. Its simple, memorable title has since drifted away from its musical context to become a common expression for a blunder or mistake, regularly reused online to mockingly comment on an everyday mishap.

How to get the “La boulette” card
Every pack holds 5 meme cards, the first 3 of them Common; La boulette comes out of the Memes FR pack as a common card. The pack odds say what each rarity weighs.
Your first pack is free and needs no account. After that a new free pack lands every 10 minutes, up to 3 waiting for you. You can also buy the card with MemeCoins on the market, bid for it at auction, or trade it — and a double recycles into 5 MemeCoins.
The reprint of the “La boulette” card
The “La boulette” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 4,274). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.
Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.
MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
