This meme was posted on Reddit with the original title "Considering sucking cock for RAM", which adds additional context that the joke is rooted in the high cost of modern high-capacity DDR5 RAM that leads many PC builders to express exaggerated levels of desperation to acquire it affordably. It uses the widely circulated "girls vs boys with a time machine" meme template to make its point, and is part of broader PC building/tech humor subcultures on Reddit.
