# Bubbles No Me Gusta Bubbles No Me Gusta is a reaction image and catchphrase pulled from an April 2016 episode of the Powerpuff Girls reboot in which Bubbles pulls a rage-comic NO face and shouts the Spanish phrase 'no me gusta.' The moment drew immediate mockery for cramming two already-dated internet memes into one Cartoon Network scene, and the freeze frame of Bubbles' face became a popular exploitable template. ## Overview Bubbles No Me Gusta refers to a two-second beat from Cartoon Network's 2016 Powerpuff Girls reboot in which Bubbles pulls a wide-eyed grimace and yells the Spanish phrase 'no me gusta,' meaning 'I don't like it'[1]. Viewers instantly recognized both the face and the phrase as direct lifts from rage comics, an image-macro format that had already faded from mainstream popularity by around 2013[4]. The exploitable version isolates Bubbles' distorted expression on a plain background, letting editors paste it into other artwork or swap in different characters' features[4]. The scene's infamy came from two directions at once, one being backlash over the show clumsily borrowing from expired internet culture, and the other being a fringe reading of the face as an anti-Semitic caricature that YouTuber RebelTaxi and other commentators pushed back on the same day[3]. ## How It Spread On April 15, 2016, animation YouTuber RebelTaxi published a Tumblr post arguing that Bubbles' expression was a straightforward rage-comic reference and not an anti-Semitic caricature as some Twitter users had claimed, pulling more than 3,000 notes inside eleven days[3]. The following day, an anonymous poster on 4chan's /co/ imageboard opened a thread rounding up hostile reactions to the scene[7]. Screenshots of that /co/ thread jumped to Reddit's r/4chan the same day via an Imgur album, hitting 304 points at 96% upvoted and more than 31,100 views on Imgur[4]. On April 17, Redditor Men_cant_be_raped posted DiscordDiscord's video clip to r/CringeAnarchy, where it picked up 233 points and 115 comments[5]. The template moment landed on April 19, when Twitter user SYM-PHO-GEAH edited Bubbles' face onto a body meant to evoke Dio Brando from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, pulling more than 600 retweets and 500 likes in the first week[6]. A Tumblr repost of the same edit picked up around 1,290 notes the next day[8]. ## How to Use The template is typically the isolated crop of Bubbles' NO face on a plain white or transparent background. People commonly paste it into other artwork, swap her facial features onto other characters, or pair the still with a 'no me gusta' caption applied to whatever thing they want to react to[4]. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Bubbles No Me Gusta?
