# Powder That Makes You Say "Yes" "Powder That Makes You Say Yes" is an exploitable image macro built from a DC Plastic Man comic panel, edited so the character eats a box of mystery powder and can only say the word "Yes." The edit hit r/bonehurtingjuice in July 2017 and became one of that summer's go-to anti-humor templates on Facebook shitpost pages. ## Origin The base panel is from a DC Comics Plastic Man strip in which the character ingests a box labeled "Salt" and simply says "What." The unedited screenshot was first documented online on April 3, 2016, when it turned up in a Reddit thread arguing over RWBY shipping[3]. The specific "Yes" variation that turned the panel into a proper meme was posted to r/bonehurtingjuice on July 4, 2017, where it pulled more than 860 upvotes. - **Platform:** Reddit (r/bonehurtingjuice) / Facebook (viral spread) - **Creator:** Unknown - **Date:** 2017 ## Overview "Powder That Makes You Say Yes" runs on a single Plastic Man[1] panel edited so the box the character is eating from is labeled "Powder That Makes You Say Yes" and his speech bubble reads "Yes." The joke is circular: the powder does exactly one thing, and the character dutifully performs its one function. Edits keep the Plastic Man panel and drop the "Yes"/"Yes powder" pairing into other comic strips, gallery paintings, or bonehurtingjuice-style reaction templates. Some versions replace the powder text with a different single-word compulsion while keeping the same premise. The humor sits in how mechanically the character obeys whatever the box tells him to do. ## How to Use The format is a copy-paste job. People start with the Plastic Man panel, keep the "Yes" speech bubble intact, and either drop it into another comic strip or gallery painting or swap the powder text for a different single-word command. The comedy comes from the flat obedience of the character, so the reaction stays understated. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Powder That Makes You Say "Yes"?
