Atlanta has reached peak MARTA meme mayhem.

After a Weather Channel feed captured a MARTA bus rolling into frame and hitting the brakes at the same time of the Georgia Dome's implosion, the phenomenon has been discussed by Stephen Colbert, shown on the Today Show and mocked by the Falcons and Hawks.

The next logical step? Well, someone who goes by Henry Stinson Birdseye III created a Facebook frame to make that bus crash your profile picture.

To add the frame to your profile, search "dome implosion" here.

A Facebook user created a tool to make the MARTA bus that ruined a camera feed of the Georgia Dome implosion crash your Facebook picture.
