Origin notes

This meme is a remix of the viral 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny' reaction meme format, which uses edited unsettled expressions of the Pixar character Mr. Incredible to convey disappointment or discomfort. It was distributed via RSS from the X.com (formerly Twitter) account @meme.jpg, a popular account that shares curated viral meme content. The format combines a generic stock photo of an office worker with the widely recognized meme face to create relatable media industry and workplace humor.
