Just for fun I looked this up. From Wikipedia, it seems very few places have legal protection over the title of "esquire". So if you're not from one of those places, have fun with the title!

yeah and the association with lawyers seems to be a us thing. Im always conflicted with memes as they are gags so not expected to be factual but then I think its easy for folks to see one and make a connection of fact from it in their head. Is it responsible to correct a meme or is it just being a buzzkill?

I correct memes all the time. My friends love me...I can't help it!!

We can laugh and learn at the same time!

Enjoy the meme, then go to the comments for some jokes and insight into a topic you wouldn't otherwise research.
