Les Guignols de l'info was a long-running French satirical puppet show that parodied politicians and celebrities through latex caricatures. Nicolas Sarkozy, president of France from 2007 to 2012, was one of its most recognisable figures, portrayed as energetic, self assured and fiercely possessive. Short lines from the puppets circulated widely online as reaction sounds because they captured a personality in a single phrase. C'est le mien survives as a compact French meme clip for ownership jokes, political satire edits and everyday arguments over objects.
