AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The "Everyone Loses Their Minds" meme (also known as "Joker Mind Loss") features an image macro format. It originates from a screen capture of the character Joker, portrayed by Heath Ledger, in the 2008 film The Dark Knight. In the image, Joker is shown making an expressive gesture, which is typically paired with captions contrast two related events or actions, highlighting excessively different reactions from people to these situations.

OriginWho did it first?

The meme captures a moment from The Dark Knight, where the Joker, disguised as a nurse, speaks to Two-Face in a hospital. In this scene, the Joker discusses the unbalanced reactions of Gotham's citizens to his acts of violence. The template for this meme originated from a Quickmeme post on April 14th, 2012, where the still was used to create various captions culminating with "everyone loses their minds!".
