The attacking midfielder or winger embraces the idea of supposed lack of intelligence in a playful manner. Many social media viewers even coined a term for his unintentional humorous called as “Palmercore” to describe his charming and unfiltered moments, which are cataloged online.

In one memorable instance, Palmer interrupted a live TV interview to quiz Marc Cucurella about his boots after a pair of slips cost Chelsea dearly.

Minutes later, Belgian broadcasters enlightened him about the origin of the Panenka penalty, a fact he candidly admitted to not knowing. Palmer later posted a cheeky caption, “Chippy chips,” under a photo of his own Panenka-style goal.

The lighthearted moments don’t stop there. Earlier in the year, during a warm-weather training camp in Dubai, Palmer visited the city’s safari park, where he encountered a mischievous baby chimpanzee.

Palmer’s humor shines even in simple moments, such as when he was asked about his favorite post-match meal.

Without hesitation, he declared his love for a hearty Chinese takeaway, “Salt and pepper chicken, rice, not salt and pepper chips, though. Too much that.” His specificity and the addition of “chippy chips” became an internet meme.

He asked the interviewer, “You know chippy chips?”

“They have to be them chips, or you don’t get them. Curry sauce, noodles…”

By ‘chippy chips’ Palmer means thick-cut chips with curry sauce.

He then later posted a photo of his Panenka penalty against Spurs with the caption: “Chippy chips” with Palmer’s chippy chips meme now viral on Twitter/X. Palmer has since gone onto see his answers in interviews, especially his use of the word ‘what’ become viral memes as well in addition to the chippy chip meme.
