It’s been a great year for memes, from Ariana Grande’s “Thank U, Next” to the “U Want This” bunny to our beloved Gritty. 2018 may be almost over, but that doesn’t mean we’re done with shareable content, and November gave us another entry into the yearly meme canon: “Don’t Say It.”

The meme imagines a hypothetical scenario where the person tweeting knows they shouldn’t say something awkward but totally says it anyway. We’ve all been there, which makes this tweet trend extra relatable.

The “Don’t Say It” meme can be the perfect vessel to vent pop culture frustrations:

*anyone says “death star”*

my brain:
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it
don’t say it

don’t say it

me: many bothans died to bring us information on the SECOND death star, not the first!!!
