The trail goes dead here. A picture of the meme was just about coming into place, between fragments of old forum posts that had survived archiving and locking, in obscure redraws and new templates, but there is no more. The true meaning of the post has been lost. Its source lies forgotten in the tangle of the internet, on the tongues and minds of people without the obsessive thirst of this investigator, who never thought to write down where such an obvious joke came from, now made esoteric by the mists of time. That’s it. Nothing left to say on Pandagate.
