What is the And I Took That Personally meme?
Michael Jordan sits in an armchair in a bright, cream-coloured living room, hands raised mid-explanation, a glass of liquor and a cigar on the side table, while the subtitle reads "...and I took that personally." The frame captures his famous habit of turning the smallest slight into fuel for revenge. As a meme it is used to exaggerate how seriously someone reacted to a tiny insult or offhand remark, with the caption describing the trivial trigger and the built-in subtitle supplying the overblown reaction.
Origin: The scene is from The Last Dance, the 2020 ESPN documentary series about Jordan and the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls. Jordan repeatedly recounts remarks from rivals that he took as personal motivation, and the line quickly became a reaction image.
Also known as: Michael Jordan Took That Personally, The Last Dance Meme.
How to use the And I Took That Personally meme
This template has a single text box at the top. The subtitle "...and I took that personally" is already part of the image, so your caption only needs the setup: the small, slightly insulting thing someone said or did. Write it as a story beat in past tense, like "my teacher said nobody would finish the test early".
The smaller and more harmless the comment, the funnier Jordan's grudge becomes. Autocorrect changing your words, a friend doubting your parallel parking, a game tutorial explaining the jump button and a cashier asking if you need help carrying one bag all work.
