me: goes to a website for the first time
the website:
Overview
This is a single-panel relatable internet meme. Text at the top reads first: 'me: goes to a website for the first time', followed by 'the website:'. Below the text is a photo of a bearded Black man with a frustrated, pushy expression holding a large lumpy baked cookie out to the viewer. The meme relies on a pun of the double meaning of 'cookie': literal baked cookies, and the internet tracking/data storage files that nearly all websites immediately ask users to consent to storing the very first time they visit the site, which is a widely relatable frustration for internet users.
Origin notes
This meme is sourced from the Reddit Meme subreddit as per the provided source information. It repurposes a widely circulated viral reaction image of a man offering a cookie that has been used in many meme formats for several years, edited here with text overlay to create the joke about website cookie consent popups.
