HOW I KNEW MY DAD CHOSE THE GIFT
Overview
This meme uses a screenshot from the 2004 Pixar animated film The Incredibles to make a relatable joke about family gift-giving habits. The top of the image has bold white text that reads 'HOW I KNEW MY DAD CHOSE THE GIFT'. On the left, the character Edna Mode is grinning widely with glowing, overjoyed eyes, and is labeled 'DAD' at the bottom of her section. On the right, Helen Parr (Elastigirl) sits holding a teacup with a shocked, appalled, and confused expression, labeled 'MOM'. The joke references the common cultural stereotype that fathers often pick out unconventional, quirky, or unhinged gifts that mothers find confusing or undesirable.
