'He A Little Confused But He Got The Spirit' Memes People Who Don't Quite Get It

This meme has it all: the warm fuzzy feeling of nostalgia we get from The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, and a healthy dose of schadenfreude from these images of people who just can't seem to get it right. The meme uses a scene from the show, during which Cornflake, one of Will Smith's white classmates, starts chanting "Yes! Power to the people! Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud!" Smith applauds Cornflake's energy, saying "All right, my man Cornflake got the spirit. He's a little confused, but he's got the spirit." The last part of the quote is what's getting meme'd, and it's being used in response to missteps ranging from grade school errors, to extremely bad takes on vaccinations. Here are some of our favorites.
