OriginWho did it first?

The Actual Advice Mallard meme was first introduced by a Reddit user known as @Releasethedreadknot on June 19th, 2011. The meme's template is based on a photograph of a mallard duck taken from an Associated Press resource about mallard ducks. The initial caption advised "Push in the sides of your tin foil package / it will keep the roll from falling out." The meme gained modest attention initially.^[1]
