This is a single-panel reaction meme featuring the animated villain Skeletor from the 1980s *He-Man and the Masters of the Universe* series. The top overlaid text reads 'WHEN PEOPLE INSULT YOU BY SAYING YOU'LL NEVER HAVE SEX.' Skeletor is depicted grinning widely and pointing mockingly forward. The bottom overlaid text reads 'YOU FOOL! I'M ASEXUAL!' The core joke is that the insult intended to upset the target is completely ineffective, as the target is asexual and does not desire sexual activity, so the supposed insult is entirely irrelevant to them.

This meme uses the popular "days without an incident" counter template from *The Simpsons*, where a character is shown resetting the counter twice to 0. The meme's text says it has been 0 days since people realized that Cyberpunk 2077's dystopian fictional setting was actually an optimistic vision of the future compared to current real-world events after 2020. The joke plays on how rising corporate power, unregulated tech overreach, and declining social conditions in real life have made the dystopia of Cyberpunk 2077 look tame and even optimistic by comparison, and this realization is so common that the counter is immediately reset to 0 every time.
