Agent P Object Labeling
On March 19th, 2018, Redditor [2] Teo_Manfredi posted a two-panel object labeling image macro featuring Perry the Platypus in the /r/dankmemes. The meme is captioned "When your mom asks if she can use your computer for 5 minutes" and shows Perry standing up right with the Agent P fedora on. The character has a computer folder icon entitled "Hentai" and in his hand is the word "rename." In the bottom panel, Perry is acting like a normal platypus with the same icon renamed "Homework." The post (shown below) received more than 5,700 points (99% upvoted) and 100 comments in two days.
That day, iFunny [3] user iSpicy posted the meme and received more than 56,000 upvotes and 420 comments.
Later that day, Redditor[4] Teo_Manfredi posted another variation of meme, reversing the panels. In this version, the platypus has a newspaper reading "Hitler Dead" over him and the bottom Agent P panel has a map of South America, where conspiracy theorists believe Hitler fled to after the war. Within two day, the post (shown below, left) received more than 1,800 points (98% upvoted) and 15 comments.
Over the next few days, users posted variations of the meme on the /r/MemeEconomy (example below, center).
On March 20th, Memedroid[5] user LucasMcain posted Spanish-language variation of the meme. The post (shown below, right) received more than 1,100 votes (91% upvoted),
