Origin notes

This meme originates from Reddit, categorized as a meme. It is a derivative work created by taking a screenshot from a real TV show, then adding text overlay to humorously express surprise or confusion about the common childhood experience of growing pains (leg pain during growth spurts, typically ages 3-12). The original TV show scene is repurposed here to react to the realization that others experienced such pain.

This meme uses the popular 'Epic Handshake' painting template to joke about shared chronic back pain across different age groups. One arm is labeled 'People 40+', the other arm is labeled 'People in their early 20s', and the clasped handshake at the top is labeled 'crippling back pain'. The joke points out the common modern experience where even young people (often from heavy lifting, poor posture, or other lifestyle factors) deal with the same severe back pain that people stereotypically associate only with older age, so both groups share this unpleasant common issue.

This is a two-panel stock photo meme. The first panel depicts an elderly male patient holding his lower back in visible discomfort, speaking to a male doctor in a clinical office setting, with a speech bubble reading 'Doctor, my back hurts when I wake up in the morning'. The second panel shows the same doctor grinning and giving two thumbs up, offering the absurdly unhelpful sarcastic advice 'Wake up in the afternoon then'.
