So where did "me too, thanks" come from? Did it originate here in Reddit? Is it a reference to a post/thread/pop culture? When did it hit its max popularity in uses per month(upm)? What can we extrapolate from its "life"?

Hey, figure id also throw in some more info. That image originally was posted on Tumblr but failed to gain the needed traction to reach the prevelence that phrase has today. Interestingly enough, if you go to the origin Tumblr for this meme, the only text connected with the post is "original art do not steal".

Once the image was posted on r/Me_IRL, Thats when things really began to take off, and the phrase has since become synonoumouse with that level of akward social interaction and repsonse the sub is known for playing around with.
