About

Increasingly Verbose Memes, also known as Deconstruction Comics, are a series of multi-pane images featuring a preexisting meme poorly redrawn in MS Paint several times – or, alternatively, successively degraded using JPEG compression – accompanied by a caption rewritten to become increasingly verbose with each successive illustration. The reciprocal relationship between the increasing verbosity and the decreasing graphic fidelity is a characteristic of some ironic memes.

Origin

On May 8th, 2016, Imgur^[2] user AFuckingWhiteMale posted a gallery of Breath-in, Boi examples, featuring several redrawn illustrations of the original image with verbose variations of the caption "breath in / boi" (shown below).

Naming

This type of meme has a number of names attached to it due, in part, to a lack of comprehensive structure when creating these types of memes. Some early, alternate names to 'increasingly verbose' include meme corruption, deconstructed memes, verbose memes, and meme decay .

In November 2016, YouTuber The Kase Reibe called the meme style a "progressively verbose" meme^[6], giving rise to the now common name "increasingly verbose" as it picked up in /r/coaxedintoasnafu in December 2016.

Precursors

The series Coaxed Into a Snafu features poorly redrawn variations of internet meme characters, along with reworded versions of their associated catchphrases (shown below, left). Additionally, the series bears many similarities to Verbose Memes, an image macro series featuring lengthy reworded variations of internet meme references (shown below, right). Similarly, the meme may be derived from Archaic Rap.

Spread

One of the earliest spin-offs dates back to October 7th, whenYouTube user 'The Kase Reibe' uploaded Press X to Doubt (below), a video spin-off of an L.A.Noire Increasingly Verbose Meme of the same name. Kase Reibe (presumably) narrates the increasingly verbose meme with their own voice, with their audio quality degrading over time in tandem with the video resolution.

On December 11th, Redditor Stop_Drop_And_Roll submitted an increasingly verbose image based on a picture of the Heavy Weapons Guy from Team Fortress 2 with the caption "put a dispenser here" (shown below, left). Within three weeks, the post garnered upwards of 3,700 votes (89% upvoted) and 70 comments on /r/tf2.^[5] On December 20th, Redditor ChronicVenom submitted a post asking about the series to /r/OutOfTheLoop,^[4] including an increasingly verbose version of Big Smoke's Order (shown below, right).

put a dispenser here dear man known as "engineer", I request a dispenser be erected in a qeneral loci around or at our current location Dear sir "Engineer" who is a person who generally is related to constructing and repairing mechanical devices, I am currently making a request of you. I have run out of health or ammunition, and as a result need a dispenser erected in this general area My most sincere apologies to you, sir engineer; as it pains me to interrupt your everyday activities here in the badlands, but I have an urgent request pending that I absolutely need attended to. Due to the fact that I am low on either ammunition or health (some may refer to them as HP or "Hit Points") which are used as digital representations of how much damage a character can take before it will die. Due to me being low on one of these two things, I am requesting that you construct, and erect a device that will dispense both ammunition and medical supplies to me in order to fix these two issues L am naving pootis

gotta go fast it is essential for you to move swiftly it is of utmost importance that your body be travelling across the land at a speed one would consider significantly higher than average you as an entity within our planet must have forces exerted on yourself in order to propel yourself forward in a manner one could describe as rapid or prompt, as it is vital to our existance! for without such 'speed' one would fail to assert our right as the entity in this planet most capable of propelling one's self using the bones and flesh to accellerate at a rapid pace! in the physical plane of existance, our universe has many 'forces' (an interaction that will change the motion of an object when unopposed). as you serve a physical presence in this universe then one can easily conclude that forces will impose an action upon the carbon based life form we will now refer to as 'you' (a multi cell organism, notable for being a spiny mammal in the subfamily of "Erinaceinae" and of a shade of blue most unusual for an organism belonging to this family). as such, perhaps you have already come to the same conclusion as i. for you see, we must not resist these forces. rather, we must use them to our advantage! you may not be aware but you are in posession of a weight-bearing and locomotive anatomical structure we refer to as legtruly a blessing, a miracle of life! one must pause to appreciate such wonders, and how we we came to be. but i digress your 'legs are capable of converting energy from your organisms energy storages to direet force! this results in momentum, through the 'inverted pendulum' gait in which you as a carbon based life form is capable of propelling yourself with! but this is not enough! we must exert as much force as possible, converting all avaliable energy sources and pushing yourself with as much forces as possible! you will ache! you will be sore! but there is an age-old saying among creatures such as yoursl "no pain, no gain". this statement is likely a jest taking the physical pain set off by your incredible momentum which ultimately results in a benefit for yourself for with progress comes pain! there is no alternative, but this is your goal in life. by why must we as a Physical being be travelling over the surface of this Planet at such velocity? we hold a title that is significant to other creatures, a meaningless self-esteem boosting which without we are nothing! it is unfortunate but this is the way of life. we are imperfect creatures and we crave attention! there are those who claim otherwise but they are wrong. but this is what our meaning in life is. to be swift and claim our title of the being in this planet capable of moving at what is currently greater than any other creature. of the billions of creatures in this universe, we are able to hurtle through this planet's atmosphere at a greater velocity! oh what a title! oh what a claim! with this achievement we will truly be remembered forever, and our life may have some meaning

MAKB AMERICA GREAT AGAN "Make America Great Again!" Transform North America into a more preferable location, as it once was. Alter the condition of the democratic republic of fifty states to be better than its current condition, making it as high quality as it was previously. I, Donald J.
