In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Who is bro” is a common card of the Memes World series 76, number 22602 of the collection, and the 91st best-known meme of its 298 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Who is bro” meme mean?

The meme rests on a simple gesture: circle in red a face nobody recognizes and ask “who is bro?”. It expresses amused puzzlement at an extra, a distant cousin or a friend of a friend who turns up in a group photo with no explanation. The humor comes from treating a harmless detail with the seriousness of a police investigation. It is also used to mock a character who appears out of nowhere.

Where does the “Who is bro” meme come from?

The meme uses an image from The Simpsons, the animated series created by Matt Groening and broadcast on Fox since December 17, 1989, in which a background character is circled in red. Whenever an unidentified face appears in a group photo, people reach for this edit and the question “who is bro”. The format has been applied to countless family snapshots, game screenshots and celebrity pictures, since all it takes is a red circle and a caption.
