Meme labels: My Mom (Thanos), Charger (Infinity Gauntlet), Her phone at 80% charge
Overview
This image is a screenshot of a text conversation between a child and their mother. The child sends their mom a meme built on the Thanos grabbing the Infinity Gauntlet template from Avengers: Infinity War: the meme labels Thanos as 'My Mom', the Infinity Gauntlet as 'Charger', and the phone as 'Her phone at 80% charge', joking that mom always takes the charger away from her phone when it is only at 80% charge, before it hits 100%. However, mom completely misses the entire point of the meme: she responds that she did not take the picture, says she does not know the man (Thanos) in the image, asks if her child went to the location the picture was taken, and ends by demanding the child call her immediately. The humor comes from the relatable experience of sharing memes with older parents who do not understand meme format or the joke, leading to total confusion.
Origin notes
This meme was originally submitted to Reddit as a user-shared conversation, with the original title 'mom didn't get it 😭'. It has circulated widely as a relatable meme about the common experience of parents not understanding modern internet humor and meme references.
