Thanks for the meme-ories.

A Philadelphia man went viral this week after claiming that he plans to save every meme format that has ever graced Twitter — in case the site gets shut down.

Nathan Allebach, a creative director, has created a Google document saving every type of meme format from the last three years.

“I periodically update this google doc that has almost every Twitter meme template from over the years,” wrote Allebach in a tweet with the currently 105-page file attached.

“If the ship goes down you can hold onto these overused jokes as a treat.”

The 31-year-old created the meme-oribilia due to the alarming changes the site has seen since Elon Musk took over the site, particularly mass layoffs across the social media company.

Faithful users have slammed the Tesla boss for over some of the abrupt changes he’s made to the platform, such as charging fees for Twitter-verified “blue checks, as well as noting a marked increase in hate speech with Musk at the helm.

The Post reached out to Allebach for comment.

“A historian,” one Twitter user called Allenbach, to which he responded, “Those who don’t know their meme history are doomed to rememe it.”

“Memestorian,” quipped another.

“Nathan saw that we lost the great libraries of Baghdad and Alexandria and said ‘Never again,'” declared Glasgow-based musician Austin Ato on the app.

One user did not find the document to be a source of comfort.

“Okay, we’re all cracking jokes at the death of this platform to hide the fact that we’re all walking through the stages of grief right now and desperately finding ways to connect beyond here,” they lamented.

“But jokes aside this is magnificent, what a labor of love! I’m astounded and grateful.”
