That One Guy Who Always Ruins Your Good Day Meme

POV: when your having a good day and someone your age says they bought a house
Overview
This is a static single-image reaction meme. The main subject is a Black man wearing a plain white T-shirt, with visible tears on his face, showing a suppressed, disappointed and sad expression as he turns his head to look toward the camera. The overlaid white text on the image reads "POV: when your having a good day and someone your age says they bought a house". The meme humorously expresses the common relatable feeling of frustration, anxiety and deflation that young adults experience when they learn that a peer of the same age has achieved the major financial milestone of buying a house that they have not yet reached, instantly ruining their previously good mood.
