Where is this meme format from?
It's an older meme, but it checks out. This meme is from the peak meme era, circa 2004.
Conventionally, rather than two panels with captions, it's made using four separate image panels. For that reason, the meme format is known as gaijin 4koma. You can search that term to learn more about it. Apparently the guys were IGN reporters.
