The “How long do idiots live” trend became popular in 2021 on TikTok and other social media platforms and then it reappeared with a new version and became even more popular. Here’s everything to know about this trend and other similar Google memes.

How Does the “How Long Do Idiots Live” Joke Become a Trend?

The origin of the “How Long Do Idiots Live” joke is the “How Old Is X” joke. A Reddit user posted a meme on 3rd February 2017, presenting the funny Google results for How old are Knuckles from Sonic? Google showed the lifespan of echidnas which implied that Knuckle would be celebrating his last birthday in 2017. Since then, Internet users started to extend this joke in different areas.

In 2021, a TikTok user posted a meme displaying the Google results for “How Long Do Idiots Live?” Google’s result for this question is 12 to 15 years. This can be interpreted in a way that all kids are fools and idiots. By the time they will become adults, they will become intelligent and more mature.

With this funny Google result, TikTok users started to make fun of each other by posting the “How Long Do Idiots Live” meme and this went viral immediately in 2021. However, this reappeared in 2022 as a new trend with the following phrase, “I’ll never forget you”.

I’ll Never Forget You: The New Version

“I’ll Never Forget You” is a popular song by Zara Larsson. In 2022, TikTok users started to post the lyrics of this song to make the “How Long Do Idiots Live” meme more interesting. So, when a TikTok user wants to show someone as an idiot, he or she sends the phrase “I’ll never forget you” as an idiot can live only up to 15 years.

Is it a Joke or an Insult?

An idiot is a person with intellectual disabilities. Therefore, using the term “idiot” to insult someone can be offensive.
