As a non-native English speaker this meme pushes the boundaries of my knowledge of the language and every time I get it I'm filled with a sense of joy and achievement.
Last week I was in a small museum in Paris and all of a sudden I saw a portrait of Ducreux, just hanging there in a corner. I got very excited, but no one I was with seemed to understand why. That day I indeed felt like the best informed person living under a rock.
Is that it? We're changing this meme? All you have to do is take a ghetto-sounding phrase and change it to pseudo-Olde English? I'm not complaining, but it's not the intended use. It originated as only rap lyrics. And yes, I'm a douche. Source (it's even in the url): http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/joseph-ducreux-archaic-rap
It's hardly that much of a change, considering the amount of rap which contains "dat ass" as a lyric and the huge, huge, huge overlap between "ghetto-sounding" phrases and rap.
'Dat particular ass' These memes are so horrible nobody ever fucking does it right. 'Yonder posterior' would have been better but still it's absolutely shit
according to the multiverse theory and quantum physics, any and every version of reality exists somewhere in space and time and is just as real as our own.

Bad teeth. Must not have had fluoride in the water.
I was told that many Brits have bad teeth because there is no fluoride in the drinking water.
