I Have Slept With Two Former Presidents

About

I Have Slept With Two Former Presidents refers to an exploitable image macro from the 2021 Netflix movie Don't Look Up. In the meme, Leonardo DiCaprio's character Dr. Randall Mindy is in bed talking to Cate Blanchett's character Brie Evantee as they both share facts about themselves to each other, with Evantee sharing an impressive fact and Dr. Mindy sharing a not-so-impressive one. After the template was used on Instagram in early 2022, meme creators inserted their own text into Dr. Mindy's speech going into that year, mostly to poke fun at an impressive achievement vs. a more humorous and unimpressive one.

Origin

On December 25th, 2021,^[1] the movie Don't Look Up was released on Netflix for streaming. The film is a dark comedy directed by Adam McKay, and the plot involves a mass extinction event where two astronomers discover an asteroid that is set to hit Earth in six months. On January 5th, 2022, the Instagram^[2] account of Netflix posted three screencaps from the movie, making them into one image. It relayed a scene in the movie when Dr. Mindy and Brie Evantee are in bed, doing an "icebreaker" before sex. Evantee lists multiple impressive facts about herself like that she's slept with two former presidents, speaks four languages and owns two Monets. Dr. Mindy on the other hand tells her that he finally got his Star Wars poster signed by Mark Hamill. The post (shown below) received roughly 69,500 likes over the course of nine days.

Spread

On January 9th, 2022, Instagram^[3] page cod.warzone.pacific posted the first variant of the template, replacing Dr. Mindy's fact with, "I've Got A Warzone Victory Last Night," in reference to the video game Call of Duty: Warzone. The meme (shown below) received 963 likes over the course of five days.

Also on January 9th, Facebook ^[4] page Dank Law Memes posted a version of the template that received roughly 3,200 likes, also over five days (shown below, left).
