Currently, the time-sensitive and competitive /r/photoshopbattles is the 31st biggest subreddit with over 15M subscribers. On average, 111 funny photos appear on it every day, receiving 310 comments during their first 24 hours.

Redditors used the photo to put Solberg in Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and Game of Thrones, among many other scenarios. It escalated up to a point where the politician herself noticed what was going on and acknowledged the photo editing competition. “I realize that with the facial expression I have there, it can be tempting to use the picture in other contexts,” Solberg told VGTV.”
