About
To Me, Crazy Frog Is Just a Normal Frog is a catchphrase used in a series of memes featuring the DC Comics villain Joker that humorously references his twisted perception of reality by imagining him seeing "crazy" things as normal, such as seeing Crazy Frog as a normal frog. Spawned by a viral tweet, the format gained prominence after an image macro of Joker went viral in July 2021 and the original quote became a phrasal template.
Origin
On February 10th, 2021, Twitter[1] user @autogynefiles tweeted an image of several crazy straws, writing, "the joker probably calls these normal straws," referencing the DC Comics villain Joker's twisted perception of reality. The tweet (shown below) gained over 2,500 retweets and 33,300 likes in two years.
On July 7th, 2021, Facebook[2] user Austine Rain Miao posted an image macro of Joker captioned, "… to me, Crazy Frog is just a normal frog…" (shown below). On July 14th, 2021, the Facebook[3] page FROGCORE reposted the image, with the post gaining over 8,700 reactions and 9,000 shares in two years.
Spread
More reposts of the image were made in the following weeks on Facebook and Instagram. For example, on July 16th, 2021, the Facebook[4] page Social Anxiety Disorder Memes reposted it, with the post gaining over 2,000 reactions and 450 shares in roughly two years. On October 8th, an unknown Redditor[5] then posted it to the /r/okbuddyretard subreddit, where it received over 940 upvotes in roughly a year and a half.
On November 11th, 2021, the Instagram[6] meme page trashcanpaul posted the earliest derivative meme based on the format, an image macro that gained over 82,600 likes in two years (shown below).
More memes based on the format followed in 2022 and 2023. For example, on September 25th, 2022, Twitter[7] user @harleybaghdad made a tweet that received over 9,200 retweets and 105,700 likes in seven months (shown below, left). On February 24th, 2023, iFunny[8] user TheWizardFrog posted a meme that received over 990 smiles on the app in two months (shown below, right).
