What is the If I Had a Nickel meme?
If I Had a Nickel shows Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb in his white lab coat, clutching his collar with a nervous, wide-eyed look in front of a wall of robots, as a puppet sidekick yaps beside him. Below the frame his punchline is printed with a gap in the middle: with a nickel for each time ___ happened, he'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. The meme points out a strange coincidence that has occurred exactly twice, usually something oddly specific that should never have happened even once.
Origin: The line is spoken by Doofenshmirtz in the 2011 Phineas and Ferb movie Across the 2nd Dimension, about an oddly specific thing that had happened to him exactly twice.
Also known as: Doofenshmirtz If I Had a Nickel, I'd Have Two Nickels, Weird That It Happened Twice.
How to use the If I Had a Nickel meme
There is one text box at the top of the image. Name the oddly specific thing that has happened twice, often opening with the "if I had a nickel" setup so it links with the line printed below.
It works best when the coincidence is weirdly precise: two games with the same twist, two exes with the same name, two team captains injured by the same mascot, two deploys broken by the same typo. The odder and more specific the event, the better the payoff line reads.
