Doctor's Weight Loss Advice vs. Own Habits with Tom from Tom and Jerry

A meme consisting of two text sections and an animated image. The top text reads 'Doctor: Lose your weight to be healthy,' followed by 'Also the doctor:' below. The image features Tom, the gray cat from the animated series 'Tom and Jerry,' standing with a smug expression, hands on hips, and a noticeably large, rounded belly. The humor stems from the satirical contrast between the doctor's advice to lose weight and the implied hypocrisy of the doctor (represented by the overweight Tom) not following their own guidance.

Overview

A meme consisting of two text sections and an animated image. The top text reads 'Doctor: Lose your weight to be healthy,' followed by 'Also the doctor:' below. The image features Tom, the gray cat from the animated series 'Tom and Jerry,' standing with a smug expression, hands on hips, and a noticeably large, rounded belly. The humor stems from the satirical contrast between the doctor's advice to lose weight and the implied hypocrisy of the doctor (represented by the overweight Tom) not following their own guidance.

Origin notes

The meme is sourced from 9Gag, a user-generated content platform. It repurposes a frame of Tom from the classic 'Tom and Jerry' cartoon, likely edited or selected to emphasize his overweight appearance, paired with added text to create a humorous critique of hypocritical advice regarding healthy eating and weight loss.

This meme is split into two parts: the top section has repeated text reading "dad is typing..." three times, followed by the line "Dad :", below which is a still frame of Tom the cat from the animated series *Tom and Jerry*. Tom is grinning widely, looking happy, and holding his hand up in a thumbs up gesture. The joke plays on the common relatable experience of waiting a long time for a father to finish typing a message over chat, only to receive a short, low-effort positive reaction like a thumbs up instead of the long message you expected.

This is a relatable ironic meme made of text dialogue paired with a popular reaction image. The dialogue sets up a simple scenario: a doctor asks their patient why they missed their scheduled appointment the day before, and the patient replies that they were sick. The doctor's reaction is represented by a heavily distorted, wide-eyed, frowning edited version of Lord Farquaad from the Shrek franchise, which conveys dumbfounded, unimpressed, awkward amusement at the irony of the excuse: people normally visit a doctor when they are sick, making the excuse logically sound while being humorously contradictory to the purpose of the appointment.

The meme has text at the top that reads: 'DOCTOR: YOU'RE FAT, WATCH WHAT YOU EAT. ME:'. Below the text is a photograph of a bald man wearing a black shirt, sitting at a restaurant table, staring intensely directly ahead at a large plate of cooked meat placed in front of him. The humor comes from intentional misinterpretation of the common phrase 'watch what you eat': the phrase normally means to monitor and limit your food consumption for health reasons, but the person in the meme interprets it literally as staring at (watching) the food he is eating.

This is a relatable two-part meme. The top section contains text that first reads 'Everyone : *calculating their age*', then follows with 'People born in 2000 :'. The bottom section is a classic reaction screenshot of Tom the cat from the *Tom and Jerry* animated series, who is grinning smugly, holding a small thin stick between his fingers resting against his teeth, looking completely unbothered and confident. The core joke is that people born in 2000 can calculate their age extremely easily by simply subtracting 2000 from the current year, requiring no complicated math unlike people born in other years, so they feel no stress when asked to state their age.

This meme consists of a short dialogue followed by a reaction image to deliver an ironic joke. The text first shows a doctor asking the narrator why they missed their scheduled doctor's appointment the previous day. The narrator replies that they were sick, which is the exact reason someone would typically attend a doctor's appointment. The punchline is the reaction image below the 'Doctor:' line, showing a wide-eyed, stunned 3D animated character whose expression conveys speechlessness and confusion at the narrator's obvious yet logically conflicting answer.

This meme features a short dialogue paired with a popular reaction image. The dialogue sets up a scenario where a doctor states they need a sperm donor, and a patient asks if they can donate directly to the recipient patient, implying they want to have sexual intercourse with the recipient instead of donating via standard clinical methods. The doctor's response is represented by an image of an uncanny, low-poly 3D animated character with a wide-eyed, disturbed, disgusted expression, reacting to the patient's inappropriate suggestion.

This is a relatable humor meme. The top of the image has text that reads 'When you used to beat your younger brother but he grew up:'. Below the text is a screenshot from the classic animated series *Tom and Jerry*: Tom the cat is standing in a doorway holding a wooden baseball bat raised over his head as if he intended to attack, but he is pressed up against a much larger, buff, angry mouse (Muscles, Jerry's cousin) who is staring menacingly at Tom. The scene humorously illustrates the role reversal when a smaller, previously picked-on younger sibling grows bigger and stronger than the older sibling who used to bully them.

This is a two-panel side-by-side comparison meme that humorously highlights the ironic contrast between how medical professionals behave when treating others versus when they are patients receiving treatment (specifically an injection). The left panel labeled 'Being a doctor' shows a calm, smiling young male doctor confidently giving an injection to another seated medical worker, while other staff in the background laugh casually. The right panel labeled 'Going to a doctor' shows that same man now as the patient: he is visibly terrified, tense with closed eyes, and has to be restrained by two other men holding him still to get the shot. The joke leans into the relatable irony that even people who administer shots daily can still be scared of getting shots themselves.

This 4-panel crudely drawn stick figure meme uses the classic 'nobody:' setup, which indicates the following behavior occurs unprompted, to show the relatable experience of eating a ripe mango. The first panel shows a simple stick figure holding a scored mango with small amounts of juice dripping. The second panel shows the same figure aggressively eating the mango, with mango juice smeared all over its face and dripping down its arms. The third panel shows the figure sitting in a large puddle of mango juice, still holding the fruit, completely covered in juice. The final panel shows a simplified wide-eyed stick figure holding the leftover mango core, with the text 'So good' below it. The joke exaggerates how messy people get when enjoying a sweet, juicy mango, leaning into the relatable, silly tone of low-effort stick figure memes.
