It's a common catchphrase with Russian-speakers that has been thrown around one time too many, it seems.

So it's a Russian meme?
絕對不會溶化的鰭形浮冰，
傳說冰魔之神被邪鬼所魅，凍結了自己。
A block of ice with the shape of a fish's fin.
According to old legends,the evil god of ice got tricked by an evil ghost and made himself frozen to the form.

In some way, if you can call a meme the thing which was coined during the WWII probably (or soon afterwards).
Не аз повинен твоеи смерти, или государь твои или ты сам, на мене ничто же рци зла: аще государь твои, ведая тебе малоумна и не научена, послал тя есть ко мне, к великоумну государю, то государь твои убил тя есть; аще ли сам дерзнул еси, не научився, то сам убил еси себя.

Main idea of the quote - this is your fault that i killed you, not mine.

Way earlier. It just became popular amongst communists during the WW2. And when they liked something they made everyone love it.
