Ron Howard's voice from Arrested Development has become one of the most iconic and widely used memes in internet culture, particularly known for its dry, ironic tone that contradicts a character's claim. 

The meme format typically involves a person stating something, followed by an imagined narrator (voiced by Ron Howard) immediately contradicting them with a deadpan, factual correction — e.g., “I didn’t do it,” followed by “He did.”
This originated from the show’s narrative style, where the narrator frequently corrects characters’ false or delusional statements, such as:
G.O.B.: “I did.”
Narrator: “They didn’t, but it would have been.”
The meme gained massive popularity during the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election, especially in response to Donald Trump’s false claims, with fans using Howard’s voice to mock or highlight falsehoods. 
Its influence extended beyond the show — Ron Howard himself recreated the voiceover for a viral Star Wars: A New Hope mashup, narrating the film in the same style, which further cemented the meme’s cultural presence. 
The meme has since been adapted across platforms like Twitter, TikTok, and YouTube, including official Netflix series like #ADNarrates, where Howard narrates fan tweets in character.

We watched episode 3 of the Christopher Eccleston Dr Who with the 7yo and 4yo tonight. 7yo knew who Charles Dickens was because he's read Christmasaurus Carol. 4yo knew because they'd both watched Muppet Christmas Carol. #culturalliteracy....

That said, I appreciate that he views multilingualism as good and in his ideal world, America would strive towards it.

You should read this book. It is brilliant and still relevant today.

Here is my only point of substantial disagreement with E.D. Hirsch.
While the encouragement of multilingualism is contrary to our history (look it up), it is only unrealistic for political reasons, not practical ones.

A common knowledge is assumed in all communications. We might as while try to identify it and pass this key knowledge down.

Dewey is more complicated than his detractors often like to admit.

Our curriculum must be “common” and “flexible.” This means we want students to have a broad shared body of knowledge AND a less shared, more particular knowledge of local culture/history

Throughout the book, Hirsch argues that one primary reason cultural literacy matters is because it enables mutual understanding. Cultural literacy is a requirement for effective communication.

“To acknowledge the importance of minority and local cultures of all sorts, to insist on their protection and nurture, to give them…respect are traditional aims that must be stressed even when one is concerned …with national and cultural literacy.”

A nation’s culture is filled with stories and facts that shouldn’t be taken for granted.
