New memes pop up on the internet every day but it’s often the old ones that remain the most popular.

The Hand Grabbing Discord Post meme
The Hand Grabbing Discord Post meme is exactly what it says on the tin, a hand grabbing a Discord post.
If you’re unfamiliar, Discord is an online messaging platform where users can communicate with likeminded individuals in communities called ‘servers’.
On Discord, you can voice call people, do video calls, send text messages and photos, private chat and also share public posts, which is what the meme is all about.
The Hand Grabbing Discord Post meme is a huge hand holding a Discord post. It is designed to be used as a template where you can insert your own funny text and create your own meme.
TikTok users love the Thanos version
The exact origins of the meme are unclear, but it was presumably created by a mystery Discord user and has existed on the internet for many years.
Officially called “I caught a Discord,” it’s currently taking over social media again in February 2022 for two reasons, TikTok and Thanos. Let me explain.
Someone created an alternative version of the meme that has Thanos’ purple hand holding the Discord post instead of a person’s hand.
People clearly love the Marvel comic book character because the meme has been taking over TikTok.
TikTok is the fastest-growing social media platform right now. So, when something takes over TikTok, it soon takes over the world.

How to make a Hand Grabbing Meme
To take part in the viral TikTok trend and make your own Hand Grabbing Discord Post meme, you’ll need to find a template.
You can find a series of templates here for the normal, Thanos and red background versions of the meme.
All you have to do is save the template and then screenshot the Twitter or Discord post you want the hand to be holding.
Then, use a photo editor to edit the two together and voila! You’ve made your own Hand Grabbing Discord Post meme.
