I took an arrow to the knee

Catch phrase from the game 'The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim' in which the guards have a repeating phrase throughout the game. Sparked an internet meme, including much fan art and responses from other existing memes.

'I used to be an adventurer like you, until I took an arrow to the knee.

Arrow in the knee

Meme based on a quote from Bethesda's RPG, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Guards would frequently tell the player "I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow in the knee." The Internet joke modifies the independent clause to make it relevant to the topic.

I used to think arrow in the knee jokes were funny, but then I took an arrow in the knee. It wasn't funny.

arrow to the knee

A phrase that is never said by any guards in Skyrim ever. And I'm not being sarcastic.

Lots of people say "arrow to the knee" on the Internet, as part of an overused Skyrim joke. I have no idea why—all the guards say "arrow IN the knee".

Arrow in the knee

Based on one of the default conversations of guards in the game TES V: Skyrim.

If you talk to the guards they say "I was an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee".

And it really gets annoying after playing the game for some time.

So people started coming up with catch phrases like "I used to be <insert something OP here>, but then I took an arrow in the knee."

"I used to be a douche like you, then I took an arrow in the knee.

Arrow to the knee

A phrase that is fairly old but popularized into a meme via the Skyrim quote

"I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee"

It has since found its way into youtube and message boards alike. Where a comment vaguely involving a video on youtube coupled with the phrase "but then I took an arrow to the knee" can attract hundreds of thumbs up.
It has since become more of spam then anything being put everywhere on every video regardless of relation. However it still fits on skyrim videos and is rather funny when paired correctly.

Me: -Browsing youtube-

Me: -reads comments on video about chocolate bar-

Comments: I USED TO EAT CHOCOLATE LIKE YOU BUT THEN I TOOK AN ARROW TO THE KNEE

Me: Okay....

Arrow to the Knee

In Nordic/Scandinavian countries, "taking an arrow to the knee" meant that you are getting married/already got married. It refers to when we propose, we fall to one knee, comparing it to when a man gets shot in the leg, he, of course, falls to one knee.

Like most definitions already posted the most popular example comes from Skyrim: "I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee". The guards are married, and can't go out adventurer, not crippled.
