Skyrim Anniversary Legal Purchase Joke

Text on the meme

Salutations my "Jive Brothers". It is I, To-... I mean DeTodd. So you think Mr. Howard is racist? Ha! I say, Ha! No. He's a "Real Original Gangster", if you catch my drift. I would say that he's the only game developer supporting the black community. So if anything, we should buy his game to show OUR support to him! Now my fellow "Niggas", go out and be sure to acquire Skyrim: Anniversary through LEGAL means. I know we sometimes are a sticky-fingered bunch, eh? With that said, farewell! I'm off to play basketball or whatever our kind does.

What it means

A forum screenshot shows a dark-skinned character portrait beside a satirical message about Todd Howard and buying Skyrim: Anniversary legally. The joke uses racist stereotypes and exaggerated praise to ironically imply that piracy would fit the stereotype, while urging the reader to purchase the game. It is an offensive parody of racialized gamer rhetoric.
