Me Gusta
This article is about the internet meme. For the original Solana memecoin, see Me Gusta ($MEGUSTA).
Me Gusta crude, tongue-out rage face expressing a weird, slightly perverse satisfaction, captioned me gusta, Spanish for I like it.
Origin
Me Gusta was created by Argentine artist Vicko around 2010 to 2011, drawn as a leering face with an outstretched tongue to convey enjoyment of something socially awkward or gross. The Spanish caption gave it an instantly memeable, deadpan flavor.
Spread
It joined the rage-comic rotation on reddit and 4chan through 2011, used as the reaction to guilty pleasures, gross bodily comfort, or anything one enjoys but probably shouldn't admit. The face traveled well internationally precisely because me gusta needed no translation.
Legacy
Me Gusta remains one of the most recognizable rage faces and a small monument to the era when Spanish-language internet humor cross-pollinated the anglophone meme scene. It has one of the older surviving meme coins in this set, launched in 2024.
