The image became a meme because its aggressive cheerfulness makes it perfect for sarcastic responses. Posting it after receiving bad news or in response to a frustrating situation creates a contrast between the relentless positivity of the image and the negativity of the context. It also works unironically when something genuinely great happens and you want to celebrate with maximum visual enthusiasm.","format":"classic","howToMake":["Select the Happy Dolphin Rainbow template. The visual positivity is already at maximum capacity","Add text for either genuine celebration or devastating sarcasm. The dolphins don't know the difference, and that's what makes it work","Bright white text with thick dark outlines is essential here since the rainbow colors and sparkles make thin text disappear","Keep captions short.
