“On vas butiner” meme: meaning, origin and common card

What does the “On vas butiner” meme mean?

The meme pictures someone announcing, all smiles, an outing among flowers, with a list that repeats itself: poppy, tulip, poppy. The repetition is the comic engine, as if the plan had been thought through carefully. The slip in the verb, “on vas”, adds to the charm of this innocent speech. People use it to announce a very simple activity in a triumphant tone, to tease an unambitious schedule, or to caption pictures of flowers and bees.

Where does the “On vas butiner” meme come from?

The line comes across as a spoken or written remark with childlike enthusiasm, picked up by French-speaking users who kept its mistake. “Butiner” is what a bee does from flower to flower, and the repeated list of flowers reinforces the picture of a circular, predictable trip. Edits place it on garden, field or insect scenes, but also on ordinary situations described with great pomp.
