This is a single-panel line art meme drawn in the typical Wojak character style. It features a bald male doctor in a white lab coat with a stethoscope around his neck, standing beside a female nurse wearing a standard white nurse uniform with a red cross on her cap. Text appears at the top and bottom of the image: the top text from the doctor's perspective reads 'OK, so great news I can keep you alive', while the bottom text continues 'Bad news is you don't have insurance so you die'. The joke uses dark, satirical humor to criticize a major flaw in for-profit healthcare systems, where life-saving medical treatment is only accessible to people who have valid health insurance, even if the care itself is medically possible to administer.

The meme depicts a scene from a formal event (likely the Critics Choice Awards, as indicated by the 'CRITICS CHOICE AWARDS' card on the table) featuring a group of people at a luxury dining table. An older man, labeled 'US Health insurance companies,' is seated and eating, surrounded by high-end items like FIJI water bottles, wine bottles, and floral arrangements. Three women to his right are taking a selfie with a smartphone. Overlaid text reads: 'Millions of Americans cancelling their insurance because they simply can't afford it (Death is cheaper and they are now undefeatable).' The image satirizes the contrast between the opulence of health insurance companies and the financial struggles of Americans who cannot afford insurance, implying companies profit while people suffer.

This is a two-panel meme using the 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny' format. The left panel features a normal, pleasantly amused version of Mr. Incredible paired with the text 'You get ads about something you talked about', representing the relatively expected and widely known practice of devices listening to user conversations to serve targeted ads. The right panel features the unsettling, dark, black and white uncanny version of Mr. Incredible paired with text 'You get ads about something you thought about', satirizing the common paranoia and concerns that tech platforms are able to track even users' unspoken thoughts to deliver targeted advertising, which is a far more disturbing and invasive prospect.

This is a relatable ironic meme made of text dialogue paired with a popular reaction image. The dialogue sets up a simple scenario: a doctor asks their patient why they missed their scheduled appointment the day before, and the patient replies that they were sick. The doctor's reaction is represented by a heavily distorted, wide-eyed, frowning edited version of Lord Farquaad from the Shrek franchise, which conveys dumbfounded, unimpressed, awkward amusement at the irony of the excuse: people normally visit a doctor when they are sick, making the excuse logically sound while being humorously contradictory to the purpose of the appointment.

This is a two-panel dark horror meme comparing outcomes of a nuclear blast: dying immediately versus surviving. The left panel, captioned 'You died in a Nuclear blast', features an unsettling uncanny smiling edited character with two normal eyes. The right panel, captioned 'You survived a Nuclear blast', shows the same character grotesquely mutated with multiple extra eyes covering his face and open mouth. The meme conveys that surviving a nuclear apocalypse would result in such horrific suffering from radiation and mutation that immediate death is a better fate, which aligns with the meme's original title 'the living will envy the dead'.

This meme consists of a short dialogue followed by a reaction image to deliver an ironic joke. The text first shows a doctor asking the narrator why they missed their scheduled doctor's appointment the previous day. The narrator replies that they were sick, which is the exact reason someone would typically attend a doctor's appointment. The punchline is the reaction image below the 'Doctor:' line, showing a wide-eyed, stunned 3D animated character whose expression conveys speechlessness and confusion at the narrator's obvious yet logically conflicting answer.

The meme consists of two lines of text placed above a reaction still from the US sitcom *The Office*. The first line of text reads "VPNs protect your privacy", while the second line reads "Meanwhile Governments". The image below depicts the character Jim Halpert peering through horizontal window blinds with a smug, knowing smile. The joke implies that even when internet users rely on VPNs to keep their online activity private, governments are still able to secretly monitor their activity, rendering the VPN privacy protection ineffective against government surveillance.

This meme uses the popular 'Crying Behind a Smile' Wojak template to satirize insurance companies. The image depicts a Wojak character, a well-known internet meme figure, with a visibly distressed, crying face (red watery eye, streaming tears) hidden behind a large, fake smiley face mask that appears cheerful and unbothered. The top text reads: **INSURANCE COMPANIES WHEN THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMEONE'S ACCIDENT**, which plays on the common stereotype that insurance companies are reluctant to pay out claims, putting on a friendly public face while feeling frustrated or upset about losing money. The humor stems from the stark contrast between the outwardly positive mask and the genuine distress underneath, mirroring the perceived duality of insurance companies' public image versus their internal reactions to paying claims.

This meme is arranged as a 2-section collage. The top panel shows a shirtless adult man standing inside a red, fleshy, tunnel-shaped space, looking sideways with a confused, disoriented expression. The bottom section uses the widely popular 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny' 3-panel reaction format: the left panel is the normal, smiling Mr. Incredible from *The Incredibles* labeled 'People who don't know', the middle panel is the unsettling black and white distorted version of Mr. Incredible labeled 'People who know', and the right panel is the faded, distressed, heavily distorted version of Mr. Incredible labeled 'People who wish they didn't know'. The meme relies on inside joke context: the top panel is a screenshot from a notoriously graphic, disturbing adult viral video, so viewers who recognize the source have the negative reactions shown in the middle and right panels, while unknowing viewers do not understand the reference.

A two-panel meme featuring a text conversation between an employer and an employee. The top text reads: 'Employer: "You're only here for the money?" Me: "Plus benefits" Employer:'. Below the text are two images of the same person, a real human, displaying increasingly shocked expressions.

This meme uses the popular stern unimpressed child reaction template to deliver a sarcastic response to the news that Mexico implemented universal healthcare. The top text sets the context: 'Mexico: Gets universal health care / Me:'. The image is split into three panels of the same young boy, with text printed on his shirt that reads 'CONGRATS', 'HAPPY FOR YOU', and 'NICE' respectively. The boy's consistent angry, unimpressed expression makes the congratulations read as insincere and indifferent, which is the core joke of the meme.

This two-panel meme uses the popular 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny' template to express relatable post-pandemic anxiety around illness. The first panel shows a normal, smiling Mr. Incredible (Bob Parr from Pixar's The Incredibles) next to text reading 'You wake up with a sore throat', representing mild initial concern about a minor physical symptom. The second panel features the distorted, unsettling uncanny version of Mr. Incredible paired with text reading 'It doesn't go away after a few hours', conveying rising worry that the symptom indicates a more serious illness like COVID-19. The meme's title references the common sentiment that many people expected frequent seasonal illness and COVID waves to stop circulating after the month of May, only for illnesses to continue appearing unexpectedly.

I thought May was where it ended, but it seems to always find a way.
