Yeah, I didn’t recognize them AS memes, much less what they reference.

Okay, I saw that one, but I figured it probably wasn’t the right one, given this guy is grey and that meme is conspicuously green.

Pepe’s not in Flo’s notes and would have represented something by that point that we wouldn’t have wanted to endorse.

Although if you beat him in battle and took his job over, you wouldn’t necessarily also gain his abilities…
The same goes for (former) US presidents, although the abilities needed to do the job well are veery different than the ones needed to get the job in the first place, whether you get it the old-fashioned way (by swaying the masses) or you beat them in combat (which might actually be rather hard, what with security being rather tight around them…)

I’ve just spent 10 minutes thinking whom I would want to beat in battle to take their job, but it’s actually a really hard question for me. Most of the people I wouldn’t mind punching have jobs that I think they’re doing very badly, but that I would not enjoy doing, either, or am likely to suck at. Most of the jobs that I’d like to have and think I could do reasonably well … I might not want or be able to fight their current owner and win.
