Angry Rant About 36 Fish with Lightning Background

The image features a dramatic night scene with multiple intense lightning bolts striking over a body of water, reflecting on the surface. In the foreground, there are faint lights from buildings or houses along the shoreline. Prominently displayed at the top of the image is bold, white text that reads: 'Fuck these 36 fish in particular.' The contrast between the visually striking natural phenomenon (lightning) and the angry, specific rant about fish creates a humorous or bewildering effect, as the connection between the lightning and the fish is not explicitly clear.

Fuck these 36 fish in particular.

Overview

The image features a dramatic night scene with multiple intense lightning bolts striking over a body of water, reflecting on the surface. In the foreground, there are faint lights from buildings or houses along the shoreline. Prominently displayed at the top of the image is bold, white text that reads: 'Fuck these 36 fish in particular.' The contrast between the visually striking natural phenomenon (lightning) and the angry, specific rant about fish creates a humorous or bewildering effect, as the connection between the lightning and the fish is not explicitly clear.

Origin notes

This appears to be a user-created meme consisting of a stock or photographed image of a lightning storm over water, edited with an overlaid text caption expressing frustration towards '36 fish.' The image likely originated from a personal or community-based platform where users share rants or humorous grievances, such as Reddit, Twitter/X, or Instagram. No visible watermarks or author credits are present, suggesting it was created using basic image editing software to add text to a pre-existing photograph of a lightning storm.

The meme features bold black text at the top that reads 'What the fish in the fish tank see', placed above a heavily horizontally distorted, stretched close-up of the character Squidward Tentacles. The warped appearance of Squidward's face is intended to replicate the distorted view a fish would see when looking out through the curved, thick glass of a fish tank. Small foliage and a faint ground line at the bottom of the image further frame the visual as a view from inside the tank looking outward. The humor derives from the relatable, silly observation of how household pets might see their owners as distorted, surreal figures, paired with the famously uncanny distorted Squidward face as a comedic punchline.

This meme uses wordplay and a common cultural stereotype about the United States to create a darkly humorous joke. It opens with the factual statement that the collective noun for a group of fish is called a 'school'. The punchline labels the following image as 'Americans:', showing two real men opening fire with rifles from opposite shores of a pond that holds a school (group) of fish. The pun relies on the double meaning of the word 'school', referencing the high frequency of school shootings in the US, implying that Americans react to the word 'school' with gunfire.

The meme opens with text explaining standard evolutionary paths: humans evolved lungs to live on land, while fish evolved gills to live in water. It then cuts to a shot of a deadpan-looking man edited to be staring blankly underwater, labeled as what whales did, referencing the fact that whales evolved from land-dwelling ancestors with lungs to return to living full time in water, an unexpected evolutionary reversal that serves as the eponymous 'plot twist' of nature.

The image is a modified classical religious painting depicting Jesus walking on stormy water towards a boat carrying his disciples. The disciples, positioned in the boat, have a text bubble reading 'Excuse me Jesus, you're in the way'. Jesus, standing on the water, responds with 'Fuck you, I am the way', referencing the biblical quote from John 14:6 where Jesus states 'I am the way, the truth, and the life'. The humor arises from the pun on the phrase 'in the way' (blocking the path) versus Jesus' declaration 'I am the way'.

This is a dark humor meme featuring an edited photo of a man treading in open ocean water facing a great white shark. The shark is edited to be holding a smartphone in its fins. A speech bubble from the man reads 'What are you doing?', while a speech bubble from the shark responds 'Posting my food in Instagram!'. The joke parodies the widespread social media trend of people posting photos of their meals before eating them, with the dark twist that the shark considers the human man it is about to eat as its 'food' being posted online.

This funny meme demonstrates a clever perspective trick to exaggerate the size of a fishing catch. A small scale action figure of a fisherman is placed next to a large dead shark on a frozen icy lake, making the already huge shark look even more massive because the toy stands in for a full-sized human. The top text gives a sarcastic pro tip explaining the trick, poking fun at the well-known trope of fishermen exaggerating the size of their catches when showing off photos.

This is a single panel meme that jokes about the unique evolutionary path of whales. The text at the top outlines two standard evolution paths: humans evolved lungs to live on land, while fish evolved gills to live in water. The punchline is presented as "Meanwhile, whales:" followed by an edited image of the viral awkward staring kid photoshopped into an underwater environment. The joke references that whales are aquatic mammals that have lungs but live fully in water, going against both of the outlined standard evolution paths, with the confused blank stare of the kid representing the awkwardly unique evolutionary position of whales.

A meme featuring a large orca (killer whale) emerging from turbulent ocean waves, symbolizing the overwhelming and sudden arrival of the year 2026 in two months. The top text overlay reads '2026 ARRIVING IN 2 MONTHS' in bold white letters, while the bottom text states 'ME NOT BEING ABLE TO PROCESS TIME NORMALLY SINCE THE PANDEMIC', humorously expressing the common post-pandemic experience of time perception distortion. The orca's powerful presence and the crashing waves visually represent the shock of time passing quickly.

A meme featuring a customer at a fish counter and a fishmonger. The customer, with her back to the viewer, asks, 'May I have a plastic bag?' via a speech bubble. The fishmonger, smiling and holding a red fish with gloved hands, responds with 'Already inside' in another speech bubble. The joke plays on the double meaning of 'plastic bag'—the customer wants a bag for the fish, while the fishmonger implies the fish is already 'inside' a plastic bag (referencing plastic pollution in oceans where marine life often encounters plastic waste).
