About
Name a More Iconic Duo refers to a series of tweets mocking a tweet by @negansvoid[1] that shows a picture of Kardashian family members Kylie and Kendall Jenner captioned "name a more iconic duo.. I'll wait."
Origin
On September 24th, 2016, @negansvoid sent out a tweet showing the Jenner sisters, challenging Twitter to name "a more iconic duo," as if it were impossible (shown below).
Spread
The tweet did not begin to spread until September 27th, 2016, when people began sharing it sincerely. One of the first known examples of its spread was a tweet by @celebsconfess[2] that placed a screenshot of @negansvoid's tweet next to pictures of actors Chris Evans and Sebastian Stan from the Captain America films. Soon, Twitter users took the template to post both sincere and joke choices for more iconic duos. Among the latter were Harambe and the child in his pen he was deemed a danger to,[3] TomBroDude and the picture of the naked man he loved to tweet,[4] Friendship Ended With Mudasir, [5] and more.
On September 28th, New York Magazine[6] covered the spread of the joke and received clarification from @negansvoid, who has since locked her account due to the attention her tweet received, that the original tweet was not sincere and she does not believe the Jenner sisters are iconic. Paper Magazine[7] also covered the spread.
