About

The phrase "I'm just going to leave this here" is commonly used as a title or intro to a blog/forum post, followed by an image or video (usually of a humorus nature).

The simplicity of the phrase is key, as it instantly grabs the curiosity of the reader, spur a reaction and subsequent posts. The images or videos that follow the phrase are usually self-explanatory and require no further input from the original poster.
