About this meme

This viral image originated in French internet culture around 2021. It features a man smiling proudly while holding an impossibly large, dog-sized rat (likely a Gambian pouched rat or a very clever forced-perspective shot/taxidermy) on a leash. The phrase "Téma la taille du rat" is French slang for "Look at the size of that rat." In meme culture, it is the definitive visual for finding a problem, bug, or mistake that is so massive it’s almost impressive, or calling out someone who is being incredibly "ratty" (cheap or opportunistic).

  • The Man (Right): Smiling broadly while wearing a mask on his chin, representing The Dev who found the bug, The Unfazed Witness, or The Person responsible for the mess.
  • The Giant Rat (Center): Dangling from a leash, representing The Massive Error, The 10GB 'Small' Update, The Giant Plot Hole, or The Audacity of a Specific Person.
  • The Doorway: Representing The Entry Point or The Reveal.
