Never Forgetti / Rest in Spaghetti – Meme Apparel Collection

Meme Overview

The “Never Forgetti” meme is a deliberately offensive 2000s shock humor staple that photoshops the Twin Towers as giant bundles of spaghetti and meatballs being hit by a plane, captioned with broken-English puns like “Never Forgetti” and “Rest in Spaghetti.”

It commonly included rapper Eminem's lyric "His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy" into a more absurd "There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti".
