In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Marc je taime” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 2172 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3493 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Marc je taime” meme mean?

The meme expresses romantic obsession pushed to excess. People shout “Marc!” in a heart-wrenching voice to parody clingy attachment, a theatrical confession or a fit of madness. In Alexandra’s mouth, the call to the suitor mixes comedy and worry, which is the whole charm of the character. Outside the show, it is used to tease a friend who is crazy about someone, to overplay sorrow or to comment on a disproportionate declaration of love, in the highest voice possible.

Where does the “Marc je taime” meme come from?

La Flamme is a French parody comedy series of nine episodes of about 31 minutes, created by Jonathan Cohen, Jérémie Galan and Florent Bernard. Aired on Canal+ from 12 to 26 October 2020, it spoofs dating reality shows such as The Bachelor and remakes the American series Burning Love. Jonathan Cohen plays Marc, a suitor facing thirteen women competing for his heart. Leïla Bekhti plays Alexandra, a lawyer labelled “psychopath” in the elimination chart, who is eliminated and arrested in episode 7. Her repeated, screamed calls to Marc were cut into compilations and “best of” videos that launched the meme.

The reprint of the “Marc je taime” card

The “Marc je taime” card was reprinted as Epic (No. 4,901). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was rare. 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.
