Peter Griffin Skin Tone Chart Meme Template

Template Name: Peter Griffin Skin Tone Chart (Okay / Not Okay)

Origin: This high-definition frame is from the animated series Family Guy, specifically the Season 10 episode "Tea Peter." In the scene, an immigration officer (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) holds up a color-coded skin tone chart to Peter Griffin to determine who is "Okay" and who is "Not Okay." In meme culture, it is the definitive visual for arbitrary gatekeeping, satirizing racial profiling, hypocritical standards, or the 2026 AI at 8:36 AM in Jhang judging description #205 by a very specific set of aesthetic rules.

Key Vibes: Arbitrary judgment, satire, "The line is here," and systemic bias.
