On March 26th, 2017, iFunny user Paddy_2017 posted the earliest known image of Doge with the caption "OK Retard." The image was captioned "The easter bunny isn't real." It received more than 4,300 upvotes (shown below). On August 2, 2017, an anonymous 4chan user on the /pol/ (Politically Incorrect) board posted this image without the IFunny mark. The image would later become a de facto logo for the subreddit (though it would later change over time as the subreddit grew). The image would also spread onto other 4chan boards, and then later onto different platforms. | On March 26th, 2017, iFunny user Paddy_2017 posted the earliest known image of Doge with the caption "OK Retard."

{{Quote|Hi I made the thing as asked in question so I think I can say some things about it. The initial idea for r/okbuddyretard was based on the "original" of an image of doge saying ok buddy, crossed out multiple times with the words retard. I got this image from people posting it in the r/bonehurtingjuice discord, so I can't say where they came from. I created the subreddit based on a image similar to what happened with r/bonehurtingjuice. Similarly to r/bonehurtingjuice just posted images I found on discord, reddit or other places that I found were funny and had a somewhat similar theme.|u/[[Kirbizia]]}} | {{Quote|Hi I made the thing as asked in question so I think I can say some things about it.
