I Hate X / Even Me?

About

I Hate X / Even Me? is a multi-panel exploitable image macro that evolved from the Boy and Girl Texting meme. This version of the meme depicts a girl tweeting the phrasal template "I Hate X" and several panels responding with variations on "Even me?" "What'd I do" and "U hate me." Since the meme's genesis in 2020, it has been used to parody the way people internalize vague proclamations on social media.
