In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Le petit , c’est celui là ?” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 5016 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3498 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Le petit , c’est celui là ?” meme mean?

People bring out "le petit, c'est celui là ?" when someone is introduced or pointed out and the result surprises, for better or worse, compared to the expectation built beforehand. The line marks a kind of mildly mocking astonishment, as if double-checking out loud that there's no mix-up about the person. It works equally well to gently tease an unexpected look or attitude, or to express comic disappointment at a reveal.

Where does the “Le petit , c’est celui là ?” meme come from?

The phrase comes from a video clip where someone points at a person nicknamed "le petit" with this astonished question, suggesting the person shown clashes sharply with what the nickname implied. The comedy comes from the line's tone, somewhere between disbelief and good-natured mockery, which captures well the reaction of someone caught off guard. The line was then reused as a caption for any situation where an introduction doesn't match expectations.
