i showed you that 

When an individual reposts a link, quote, pictures, etc. on Facebook without crediting the person from which they were originally shown the material. The original poster usually comments the newly reposted material saying "umm...i showed you that" complete with nuances of irritation and a "wtf" feeling since you did not credit their name.

Usually used in cases of extremely viral, common, and clichéd material; therefore, a shout out is generally not expected.
