The PSAs from “war criminal” Captain America were among the best gags in Spider-Man: Homecoming. The outlaw Avenger appeared via a series of hilarious old VHS clips extolling the virtues of physical fitness, following the rules, and patience. It would be hard to forget them, not only because they were absolutely fantastic, but because the movie came out less than a year ago. In the grand scheme of the universe, that’s not a long time, but in internet time, it’s basically an eternity, which is why we’re not entirely sure why it has just now become the best new Twitter meme.
Not that we’re complaining, because it was worth the wait.
This video was shown to Peter Parker while he was in detention, and features an earnest Captain America talking about messing up, which probably didn’t connect with Peter since he had just fought him in Civil War.
Only now have fans started to utilize this great moment for some internet silliness, possibly because everyone is trying to find ways to deal emotionally with the fallout of Infinity War. Although these don’t help.

Fortunately most of them don’t make us relive Peter Parker being sent to the ultimate detention.

We have no idea why this took so long to become a meme. Maybe Cap can make a PSA explaining why sometimes the internet takes its time.
What’s the best version of this meme you saw? Tell us in the comments below.
