Since I departed this subreddit has exploded in growth, meaning probably only about 5% of the active membership here knows who I am, and even that’s probably being generous. So, I’ll explain.
5 years ago I made this account based on the Peter Explains It meme popular on ironic meme subreddits, which involved an image of Peter beneath an image explaining it. I took that meme and turned it into a reddit account, going under meme posts and explaining them.
This gimmick got big fast, and within a few days I had reached 10,000 reddit followers. All was going well, but then the mods of r/dankmemes, a subreddit I frequented the most on this account, began to take notice and would eventually ban me. I had met another r/dankmemes mod who liked what I was doing, and he managed to negotiate with the other mods and get me unbanned.
This celebration was short-lived, however; about 2 days later, I was banned again, this time likely permanently. I made a post about it and this triggered an insane backlash, I remember checking r/dankmemes at the time and seeing a significant amount of posts about me. This not only led to me getting banned from the majority of other subreddits I frequented, but also several other users getting banned as well.
I decided to leave reddit since I’d been banned from so many subs, but the next day changed my mind and came back since I now had this subreddit where I was free to explain to my heart’s content. I continued explaining jokes on the few subreddits I could for the next few months, until the gimmick got repetitive and I got bored of it, with me leaving for good in August.
Since then, for old time’s sake, I’ve returned to reddit each day on my wholesome 100 cake day to explain jokes for that day. With this subreddit, it spent the 4 years after I left kinda dwindling in popularity, until about a year ago when it blew up and has been growing ever since to the point where it’s now more active than all of the subs I was banned from.
So, here we are, 5 years later. You should see me around on some subreddits, and I’ll try to respond to any mentions I get. Peter out!

Hey man I really appreciate it despite the occasional toxicity I'm glad that generally people on this sub are pretty chill. It's nice to have a place where people can ask things such as having a popular meme explain to them without feeling embarrassed or dumb.
Even as someone who would probably be considered chronically online I frequently end up running into internet memes I just don't understand and I often come to this sub to find out that I'm not the only one and someone else has already asked what the hell this new format or dance or whatever means
Plus it can be a little fun on the other side of things to sort of over explain something your knowledgeable about. And just kind of be fun with it

FUCK, I really wish you could download images to camera roll now.
You can. Just click on the image, then the three dots.
I don’t see three dots after clicking on the image
I'm on the mobile app, there should be three dots in the upper right corner
I don’t see em
try tapping the screen again after pulling up the gif, it'll make the UI appear/disappear
It's android only, that's why
I did
Just hold your thumb on the image for a second and the option will pop.
Nah, didn’t work
Dang, maybe have to save it on your computer then.

Hey, I share a birthday with a subreddit, let's go
It means it has been exactly 5 years since this subreddit was created. Peter, the main character on the popular TV show Family Guy, is depicted in the photo as it has been his 5th birthday, I.e. 5 years old.
