In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “La friendzone” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 5535 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3507 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “La friendzone” meme mean?
The meme pokes fun at awkward attempts to win over someone who already sees you as a friend. It works as a reaction to an unsuccessful romantic approach, or as an ironic way to frame a supposed strategy for changing a friendship into a romance. The mock-academic presentation makes familiar situations sound like a serious lesson, while the joke rests on the gap between that tone and the subject.
Where does the “La friendzone” meme come from?
The meme comes from a comedy video by Wil Aime, a Guadeloupean creator and comedian. Titled “Comment sortir de la Friendzone,” it was posted on Facebook on April 11, 2017. Wil Aime plays “Professor Guillaume,” who delivers a parody lesson in social psychology about the friendzone. A YouTube upload is dated April 13, 2017. The meme generally uses an image or short clip from the video, although the specific excerpt used is not identified in the supplied sources. Wil Aime later posted a sequel, “Comment sortir de la Friendzone 2,” on Facebook on July 15, 2019.
