It's Never Duck Autocorrect Meme

This meme pairs a photo of a fluffy yellow baby duckling on the right side with text complaining about smartphone autocorrect on the left. The joke is a vulgar pun: the creator almost certainly meant to type the swear word 'fuck' when typing, but autocorrect kept automatically changing it to the innocuous word 'duck'. The text reads 'Dear autocorrect. It's never duck. Its NEVER duck', repeating the complaint that autocorrect is wrong, and the inclusion of the actual duckling image emphasizes the pun for comedic effect.

Dear autocorrect. It's never duck. Its NEVER duck

Overview

This meme pairs a photo of a fluffy yellow baby duckling on the right side with text complaining about smartphone autocorrect on the left. The joke is a vulgar pun: the creator almost certainly meant to type the swear word 'fuck' when typing, but autocorrect kept automatically changing it to the innocuous word 'duck'.

This is a popular classic pun meme that has circulated widely across social media platforms, originally shared on sites like Reddit and dating back to the early 2010s when smartphone autocorrect became a common everyday frustration for users.

The meme consists of a stock photograph of a duck with a green head, brown chest, and orange beak standing against a plain white background.

This meme features a clever optical illusion captured on a wet car sunroof.

The caption below the image reads, "There's a duck on my sunroof," playing into the visual trick. The joke relies on the viewer's initial assumption that a real duck is present, only to realize it's just a natural pattern formed by water on glass. It's a lighthearted, wholesome visual pun that encourages a double-take from the audience.

This is a variant of the popular Actual Advice Mallard internet meme. It features a stock photograph of a male mallard duck floating calmly on rippling water, with bold white text with black outlines placed at the top and bottom of the image. The top text reads 'ALWAYS MASTURBATE' and the bottom text reads 'BEFORE A DATE'. The crude humorous advice refers to the idea that masturbating prior to a romantic date reduces sexual desperation and impulse, which the joke claims prevents you from overrating your date's attractiveness (as noted in the original 9GAG title stating 'Believe me, it turns a 10 into a 4!', referencing common 1-10 attractiveness rating scales) and making poor decisions driven by sexual arousal.

The meme features a playful premise titled 'What's Your Silly Duck Name?' with three white ducks in distinct poses: one standing with red webbed feet, another sitting with an extended neck, and a third looking upward with a rounded body. The word 'Silly' is displayed in colorful, gradient letters (red, blue, green, yellow, purple) above 'Duck Name' in bold black text. Below the ducks, instructional text humorously instructs viewers to create their 'silly duck name' using sensitive financial information: 'First name: Your credit card number; Middle name: The expiration month/year; Last name: The three wacky numbers on the back.' This satirical design subverts the lighthearted 'silly name' trend to jokingly trick users into sharing private data.

This is a two-panel digital comic meme. The first panel shows a cartoon goose with its beak open, asking the question 'Hey! What's that stuffed with?'. The second panel reveals the goose is confronting a human wearing a puffer down jacket, aggressively shouting back 'What's your jacket stuffed with, motherf*cker?' while the human appears to be attempting to run away. The humor derives from the implication that down jackets are filled with goose feathers, so the goose is angrily confronting the human over the use of goose material to make their jacket, leaning into the popular cultural trope of geese being overly hostile and confrontational animals.

This image is a screenshot of the Apple iOS Notes application, showing a bulleted list of observed birds: the list contains 5 entries of 'pigeon', 1 entry of 'crow', an additional 'pigeon' entry, and ends with 'duck'. A white rounded text box at the bottom of the image carries the caption 'Getting into birdwatching'. The humor comes from the relatable joke that a novice birdwatcher is only able to identify the most common, widespread urban bird species, resulting in a very repetitive, basic observation list that contrasts with the expected diverse, specialized list experienced birdwatchers would keep.
