The two text captions conveying the joke about hiding r/popping browsing from a romantic partner
Overview
This meme uses the widely recognized 'awkward couple in bed after intimacy' stock photo template. A woman on the left side of the bed crosses her arms and looks suspiciously at the man lying turned away from her on the right, with the text overlay next to her reading 'Was that porn?'. The text overlay next to the man shows his internal panicked thought: 'Can't let her see me on r/popping'. The joke plays on the reputation of the Reddit subreddit r/popping, which hosts content of pimple popping, cyst removal, and other dermatological procedures that many people find gross or uncomfortably niche, implying that being caught browsing this subreddit would be more embarrassing for the man than being caught watching pornography.
