I have seen hundreds of versions of this poster from "Keep Calm and Party On" to "Keep Calm and Make Tea." People have been changing the poster to match who they are as people. I think this is a great example of a meme that has a tendency to evolve as it spends more time on the Internet. The poster has been on the web for a while and is still going strong. The fact that people can alter the poster gives the meme no restrictions and a wide range of ability to be creative.
Here is an alteration:
I honestly thought that these originated from a fashion designer. I saw the original in a really pretty frame once while thrifting. It's interesting to see how this has moved throughout the internet and how people have recreated it. However, I have to agree with the last poster. I like the original and want people to stop recreating it!
