Origin notes

This meme is a user-created remix, likely made with the Imgflip meme generator (indicated by the 'imgflip.com' watermark). It combines a food photo with two reaction images: the left character is Mr. Incredible (repurposed from 'The Incredibles'), and the right character is a real person/meme figure representing 'enlightened' individuals. Such comparison memes are common on platforms like Reddit, Twitter, and Imgflip to highlight niche knowledge gaps humorously.

This two-panel meme contrasts people unfamiliar with a niche gaming reference against those who recognize it. The top panel shows two horses from *The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion*: one wearing a silly banana-peel styled armor, the other in formal knightly horse armor. The bottom panel uses the popular Mr. Incredible meme variant: left is the friendly, smiling Mr. Incredible labeled **People who don't know**, right is the distorted, uncanny smiling Mr. Incredible labeled **People who know**. The joke references the 2006 *Oblivion* horse armor DLC, one of the first widely criticized overpriced microtransactions in gaming; those in the know understand the absurdity of the DLC, while others only see strange horse outfits.

A two-panel meme comparing the quantity of noodles from one pack versus two packs. The left panel shows a small, sparse amount of plain yellow noodles held by wooden chopsticks against a white background, labeled 'One pack of noodles'. The right panel features a large, overflowing pile of seasoned noodles (likely stir-fried) with visible vegetables like cabbage, on a white plate, labeled 'Two packs of noodles'. The humor stems from the exaggerated difference in portion size, implying that two packs result in an unexpectedly massive amount compared to one.

This meme uses a popular viral photo template where two young children (a girl holding a crying boy) are pressed against a corner wall, terrified of a black rabbit sitting next to a wooden bucket on the floor. The meme labels the characters to joke about escalating levels of unpopular and controversial pizza toppings: the girl is labeled "People who put corn on pizza", the boy is labeled "People who put anchovies on pizza", and the rabbit (the scary thing the kids fear) is labeled "People who put broccoli on pizza". The joke portrays adding broccoli to pizza as such an unforgivable, unacceptable topping that even people who dislike other controversial pizza toppings are terrified of it, playing on the common ongoing online debate about what toppings belong on pizza.

This meme uses a widely recognized reaction image of a skeptical, confused young Black woman holding her hand up as if pushing back or questioning a claim. The top text cites the high-profile 2024/2025 criminal case "People v. Mangione", which refers to the prosecution of Luigi Mangione, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. The bottom text asks "WHO IS THIS 'PEOPLE'?", making a sarcastic joke about the standard US legal naming convention for criminal cases where the prosecution is framed as representing "the People" (the general public). The joke references the widespread online sympathy and support expressed for Mangione, implying the public does not support the prosecution, so the identity of the "People" bringing the case is unclear.

This is a two-panel reaction meme that uses screenshots from the Netflix series *The Umbrella Academy* to deliver a wordplay joke. The top panel features the character Vanya Hargreeves (portrayed by Elliot Page) with a shocked expression, looking out from a car window, paired with the text: "White people with the last name 'Black'". The bottom panel shows character Number Five (Aidan Gallagher) with a similarly shocked, bewildered expression, also in a car, with the text: "Black people with the last name 'White'". The humor comes from the ironic contrast between a person's racial identity and their surname, playing on the dual meaning of "Black" and "White" as both racial descriptors and common English last names. The exaggerated shocked expressions of the characters emphasize the absurdity of this contradictory naming scenario.

A meme featuring two characters side by side, humorously contrasting a 'Main Reddit Account' and an 'Alternate Reddit Account no one knows about.' The left character wears a vibrant, multicolored sweater with the text 'Main Reddit Account,' while the right character wears a dark jacket with the text 'Alternate Reddit Account no one knows about.' The visual contrast between the bright, outgoing appearance of the main account and the dark, secretive look of the alternate account playfully represents the common practice of maintaining a public main social media account versus a private alternate account. The background features a blue, abstract pattern, likely from the TV show 'Wednesday' on Netflix, where the characters Enid Sinclair (left) and Wednesday Addams (right) originate.
