Dolly Parton just weighed in on the distracted boyfriend meme and, well, she absolutely smashed it.

The singer and all-round legend tweeted a meme that pretty much any Dolly fan will instantly understand.

Those who’ve ever listened to the lyrics of the 1973 song “Jolene” will know the song tells the story of a woman whose partner has feelings for another woman, namely Jolene.

Well, now the lyrics of this timeless song have been immortalised in meme form by none other than Dolly herself.

Some memes die out quickly, others continue on for lightyears.

The distracted boyfriend meme definitely appears to belong to the latter.

At San Diego Comic Con this weekend, the meme got a fresh lease of life thank to a genius Star Wars twist.

I think this is one of those memes. Maybe. Also, I feel like having some @cinnabon —>The idea came from the Han Solo and Qi’ra! Shout out to @jujukitty2323, @socalcostumes and @griffincostumes. Go follow them!! #solo #qira #starwars #princessleia #iunderstandthatreference

Charlie Chaplin Culture Distracted Boyfriend Memes

Charlie Chaplin was the original Distracted Boyfriend meme

Was the Distracted Boyfriend meme actually born in 1922?

No. But check this out. There’s an image going around Reddit right now that looks remarkably like the famously disloyal man — and it’s from the 96-year-old short film Pay Day, which stars Charlie Chaplin.

The photo was posted to r/pics on Monday by user i124nk8 under the header “Charlie Chaplin: inventor of memes.” (It had been circulating on Twitter, courtesy of @peeto_g, since the day before.)

Now, against my better judgment, I am considering replacing the original Distracted Boyfriend with the Charlie Chaplin version from now on. For one thing, everyone’s outfits are much better. For another, I haven’t seen the latter image every day for the past 10 months. Plus, vintage! Read more…
