Talking Cut-outs Meme 

A new age meme, in the nature of Youtube poop, where the photo cut outs, especially that of famous celebrities are manipulated against different backgrounds to play out a hilarious imaginary scene, or an entire series of episodes.

Pop stars are mostly the butt of this meme; their cut-outs are assembled & juxtaposed to fit a given scenario, & often times the lines from their songs are extracted & played as dialogues to match that scenario, which makes it ever so more entertaining. The Cut-outs usually don't talk, but are simply moved up & down when the particular character is speaking, & then other times they are moved around in particular ways to mimic certain actions as if it's a living character, just like in a game, but only lifelessy still. Even the expressions are sometimes manipulated by switching between different pictures, or with the use of animated effects. They can be costumed up to almost wearing anything through Photoshop or any such photo editing software.

This is the latest uprising fad after Mukbang & ASMR videos on YouTube. The term Talking Cut-outs meme can also be simply shortened to TCo/TCO meme for convenience.

VanityLessons, Stan Anime, RustyHill-秀山, Darianas Eggs are some of the top channels producing this meme content, & are really great at it.
Taffy : Hey, did you watch that new talking cut-outs meme of popstars at McDonald's that I sent you?

Rexa : Haha, I totally choked on my soda when I saw that. That shit's just unbelievably genius, creative & hilarious. All those dialogues ripped from songs like "I don't like", "Thank you next", "Taki Taki", "Boombayah", "This is what you came for", "I know what I came to do", "Ariana Run", "Now I'm the bad guy", "Yeah Yeah", "Sorry", "Ice Cold Water", "Hot Sauce", "One Kiss is all it Takes", "Finally" have become my favourites; & I'm not even talking about the actual songs.

Taffy: Wow, you certainly seemed to be addicted to those a lot more than me!

Rexa : Thanks for introducing them to me. I just totally love them!

taking it to the streets

An idiom, with figurative and literal meanings; to actively commune with society while promoting the resources of intellect, creativity, entrepreneurialism, and democratic processes to promote positive change, self actualisation, and solidarity. This quintessentially American idiom represents the spirit of grassroots activism and the powerful spirit of the people when mobilized and when participating with our communities. It is figurative language representing the mobilization of peoples to create change from within the community. It functions as an affirmation of sovereignty and empowerment in the face of marginalization, institutional oppression, and prejudice. As the fifth estate is the foundation of democracy and ensures the intrinsic spirit, voice, and actions of We the people; the participant and the witness alike may literally “take it to the streets.”
Grassroots change is when people are effectively, taking it to the streets; as Anthropologist Margaret Mead said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”

Lyrics by The Doobie Brothers, include,

“ You don't know me but I'm your brother
I was raised here in this living Hell
You don't know my kind in your world
Fairly soon, the time will tell
You, telling me the things you're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like what I think I see
Takin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
Take this message to my brother
You will find him everywhere
Wherever people live together
Tied in poverty's despair
You, telling me the things you're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like what I think I see
Takin' it to the streets”
