About

Please Do Not Swear On My Profile Thanks is a phrasal meme added onto profile pictures on Instagram and Facebook sarcastically asking visitors to not use curse words in comments on their page.

Origin

The first picture to use "Please Don't Swear On My Profile" placed the text in impact font over an angry-looking pre-teen boy, YouTuber sammyclassicsonicfan (shown below). The earliest recorded post was by the Instagram page meme_plug[1], who posted it on January 21st, 2017.



Spread

On February 21st, Instagram meme page croissant_memes_for_sale[2] posted a picture of Joe Swanson from Family Guy photoshopped onto Peter Griffin's body with the text (shown below).



According to Buzzfeed News,[3] this image inspired Jack Salamanders of Weird Facebook page Senate Salamander to create a filter using Facebook's Camera Effects tool[4] that puts "Please Do Not Swear On My Profile Thanks" in an oval shape over users' profile pictures (ex: shown below).



The filter was spread widely through Facebook in late March.
