Since January, the images of someone pointing to their head with a knowing grin, accompanied by logically sound but absurd advices have been the new joke of the cyber world. Just last week, Nintendo added to to the trend with a tweet, where the company took the joke to a new absurdity level with its trademark dad humor. The Roll Safe joke has just hit another critical mass!<\/p>\n<p>The meme started from actor\u00a0Kayode Ewumi while he performed for a BBC Three web series named Hood Documentary. Not long afterwards, gifs and images of him pointing to his head and glancing sideways to the camera started surfacing. Then, in January, the meme exploded, started from Black Twitter, as people use it to give advice about lifehacks, but with fatal flaws. There are hundreds of them, ranging from comically bad to tragically comic.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">You can&#39;t get hit by a blue shell if you&#39;re never in first place. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/OkNEj3ZZL2\">pic.twitter.com\/OkNEj3ZZL2<\/a><\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Nintendo NY | SAN FRANCISCO (@NintendoStoreUS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NintendoStoreUS\/status\/830151590917050369?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 10, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Game have also joined in the ride as well, like <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Noctis_Kohi\/status\/829449639871074304?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">Final Fantasy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SirKeyblade\/status\/826614845877280768?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">Kingdom Hearts<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/overwatch1080p\/status\/829114749396844545?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">Overwatch<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StarCraft\/status\/830225059482476544?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">Starcraft<\/a>, and even the new Nintendo game <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ikunias\/status\/829916966525747201?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">Fire Emblem: Heroes<\/a>.
