When You Know You're Being Annoying But Can't Stop Dog Meme

This meme has two sections: black text at the top on a white background that reads 'When you can feel yourself being annoying but you can't stop', placed above a blurry photograph of a fluffy light tan and white dog (likely a Corgi mix) with a smug, unapologetic facial expression looking slightly off-camera against a bright red background. The humor derives from the relatable feeling of being self-aware that you are being irritating, but being unable or unwilling to stop the behavior, which is perfectly embodied by the dog's cheeky expression.
