This is a 3-panel satirical meme pointing out hypocrisy in online gender discourse. The top left panel shows an enraged, crying male Wojak (soyjak) character with the text 'Men: Women Bad!' above him, representing men who publicly express resentment and anger toward women. The top right panel shows an equally enraged, crying female Wojak character with the text 'Women: Men Bad!' above her, representing women who similarly voice resentment toward men. The bottom panel is labeled 'Also them:' and depicts two simple, blushing cartoon characters embracing affectionately, surrounded by floating pink flower petals, implying that despite their vocal complaints about the opposite gender, these same people still desire romantic and emotional connections with members of the gender they claim to dislike.

This is a two-panel Wojak meme joking about common dynamics in romantic couple arguments. At the top, the header text reads "In couple arguments". The left side labels the group "Men who apologize, even when they're right", showing an unmasked, heavily crying, distressed Wojak face that openly displays his frustration and sadness at apologizing even when he is factually correct. The right side labels the group "Men who choose to win the argument", showing a Wojak that is also crying and distressed underneath, but hides his true unhappy feelings behind a simple smiley face mask. The meme conveys that neither outcome feels satisfying, and even "winning" an argument against your partner leaves you unhappy, which matches the meme's title "Not all wins feel like wins".

This meme is a two-part comparison chart. The top section is labeled "Top female streamers" and features four diverse, neatly drawn, conventionally attractive female characters of different ethnicities, all presented as polished and appealing. The bottom section is labeled "Top male streamers" and features four unflattering, crudely drawn Wojak-style meme characters, including an angry bald figure, a smug alien, a tired bearded man, and a grinning monkey, all depicted as messy, odd, or unattractive. The joke satirizes the double standard in streaming culture: female streamers are largely expected to meet strict conventional beauty standards to gain popularity, while male streamers can achieve mainstream success regardless of their appearance, even if they are unkempt or have unconventional looks. The original title of the post, "Cause there are more male streamers?", is a sarcastic question that mocks the idea that this disparity is accidental rather than driven by unfair gendered expectations.

The top panel shows the creator's parents at 35 calmly discussing that they can easily afford to have a fifth child.

I'm sure it will look good." The man responds simply, "Ok." The bottom panel, labeled "20 minutes later," shows the same woman and man now facing each other; the man has shaved his beard but has an awkward, red-toned face, and both characters display uncomfortable, awkward expressions, implying the shave resulted in an unexpected or unflattering appearance.

This is a 4-panel illustrated comic meme that jokes about a perceived gender double standard in social event planning. The top left panel shows a dark-haired woman asking if they should invite another woman they are not close to, and the top right panel shows a blonde woman responding that they should not, as they barely know her. The bottom left panel shows a man in a black cap asking who an unknown bearded man is, and the bottom right panel shows another bearded man casually responding that he has no idea who the stranger is, he just brought him along because he was outside the event. The joke highlights the stereotype that women are far more cautious about including unfamiliar people in group plans, while men are extremely casual about bringing random unvetted strangers to group events without prior discussion.

This is a 5-panel ascending positive reaction meme using edited versions of the character Mr. Incredible (Bob Parr) from Pixar's *The Incredibles*. Each panel pairs an increasingly happy/euphoric edit of Mr. Incredible with a step in a common gamer experience: 1) Normal neutral Mr. Incredible paired with the line "YOU FIND A GAME", 2) Shocked confused desaturated Mr. Incredible paired with "IT DOESN'T CLICK WITH YOU", 3) Tired disinterested pale Mr. Incredible paired with "YOU FORGET ABOUT IT FOR A LONG TIME", 4) Happy slightly glowing Mr. Incredible paired with "YOU COME BACK ONE DAY", 5) Glowing rainbow euphoric Mr. Incredible paired with "BEST GAME YOU'VE EVER PLAYED".

This is a two-panel reaction meme using the classic Drake Hotline Bling format. The top panel shows rapper Drake making a dismissive, rejecting hand gesture next to the text "We're fucking a lot", indicating this blunt explicit statement about frequent sexual intercourse is socially unacceptable. The bottom panel shows Drake smiling, nodding, and pointing approvingly next to the text "We're trying for a baby", indicating that this polite euphemism describing exactly the same activity is considered completely socially appropriate. The joke draws attention to the absurd double standard of social acceptability around discussing sexual activity related to conception.
