Me seeing an original meme on Reddit; Reddit the very next day

Overview

A two-panel meme using scenes from Disney/Pixar's Toy Story featuring Buzz Lightyear. The top panel shows a single Buzz Lightyear toy in its packaging with the text overlay 'Me seeing an original meme on Reddit,' depicting the initial excitement of encountering original content. The bottom panel shows endless shelves filled with identical Buzz Lightyear packages, accompanied by the text 'Reddit the very next day,' humorously illustrating how quickly original memes are reposted and saturated across the platform.

Origin notes

The meme is a remix of footage from Disney/Pixar's Toy Story franchise, specifically using images of Buzz Lightyear in his toy packaging. The original scene likely comes from the movie's toy store or packaging sequences, which have been edited and combined with text overlays to create a commentary on Reddit's culture of rapid meme reposting. This type of meme is commonly shared on Reddit itself to humorously critique the platform's tendency to oversaturate original content through reposts.
