Pathetic: Sarcastic Reaction to Jay Kay Breaking Up With Winona Ryder

This is a two-panel comedic reaction meme. The top panel displays side-by-side photos of musician Jay Kay, lead singer of Jamiroquai, and actress Winona Ryder, overlaid with text claiming Jay Kay ended his relationship with Winona Ryder because her breasts were too large and she wanted to have sex very frequently. The bottom panel features a screenshot of the character Dennis Reynolds from the TV show *It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia*, sitting at a bar speaking to two other men, with caption text of his line: "Oh god...ya know...geez...thats terrible." The humor derives from the sarcasm of Dennis's reaction: the stated reasons for the breakup are generally considered highly desirable by most people, so his fake sympathy is clearly ironic, framing Jay Kay as foolish for ending the relationship over those grounds.

Origin notes

This meme was sourced from 9Gag via an RSS feed, under the original title "Pathetic". It combines a widely circulated, likely unsubstantiated, celebrity gossip claim about Jay Kay and Winona Ryder's past relationship with a popular reaction template from the sitcom It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, where character Dennis Reynolds delivers unconvincing, sarcastic sympathy. The Imgflip watermark present on the image indicates it was likely created using the free Imgflip meme editing tool before being reposted to 9Gag.
