Newton with an apple; Me with an apple

Overview

A meme structured in two sections comparing 'Newton with an apple' and 'Me with an apple.' The top section 'Newton with an apple' features a left image of an astronaut floating in space with Earth and a crescent moon, and a right image of a historical portrait of Isaac Newton with curly hair. The bottom section 'Me with an apple' shows two left images of a red apple with a barcode sticker, and two right images of an orange kitten—top kitten with a neutral expression, bottom kitten with the apple's barcode sticker edited onto its forehead, creating a cute, relatable contrast to Newton's scientific legacy.

Origin notes

This meme is a remix created by collaging existing images: an astronaut in space (likely a real space photograph), a historical portrait of Isaac Newton, photos of a barcode-stickered apple, and photos of an orange kitten. The bottom kitten image appears edited with the apple's barcode sticker added to its forehead. It was sourced from X.com (formerly Twitter) under the 'WholesomeMeme' account, indicating it was user-created through image editing software to juxtapose scientific history with everyday, cute moments.

This two-panel wholesome pun meme uses a public domain portrait of William Shakespeare and a stock image of a pear to create a phonetic joke. **Panel 1**: Shows two separate elements: left is Shakespeare's portrait labeled *William*, right is a green pear labeled *Pear*. **Panel 2**: Edits the portrait to have a hand extending from it holding the pear, with the combined label *William Shakespear* (a playful misspelling of Shakespeare, replacing 'speare' with 'pear' to match the fruit). The humor comes from the phonetic similarity between 'spear' (from Shakespeare) and 'pear', creating a lighthearted, silly gag.

A meme featuring a historical portrait of Sir Isaac Newton, a prominent physicist known for discovering gravity. The image has two lines of text: the top text reads 'MF HAD SEEN HIS PISS GO DOWN EVERY TIME' and the bottom text reads 'BUT NEEDED AN APPLE TO NOTICE GRAVITY'. The joke humorously contrasts the everyday observation of urine falling (due to gravity) with the popular story of Newton discovering gravity after an apple fell on his head, implying he should have noticed gravity sooner from mundane experiences.

This 4-panel crudely drawn stick figure meme uses the classic 'nobody:' setup, which indicates the following behavior occurs unprompted, to show the relatable experience of eating a ripe mango. The first panel shows a simple stick figure holding a scored mango with small amounts of juice dripping. The second panel shows the same figure aggressively eating the mango, with mango juice smeared all over its face and dripping down its arms. The third panel shows the figure sitting in a large puddle of mango juice, still holding the fruit, completely covered in juice. The final panel shows a simplified wide-eyed stick figure holding the leftover mango core, with the text 'So good' below it. The joke exaggerates how messy people get when enjoying a sweet, juicy mango, leaning into the relatable, silly tone of low-effort stick figure memes.

A two-panel meme comparing the perception of the moon versus its appearance in a photograph. The left panel, labeled 'How I see the moon', displays a large, bright full moon with visible craters, surrounded by stars and wispy clouds against a dark night sky, representing the vivid, large appearance of the moon to the human eye. The right panel, labeled 'When I take a picture', shows a small, dim white dot against a dark background, humorously depicting the common experience of the moon appearing much smaller and less impressive in photos compared to how it looks visually.

This is a 2x2 grid pun meme. The top left panel displays the word "Skeleton", paired with the top right panel that shows a complete, full human anatomical skeleton standing upright. The bottom left panel displays the invented word "Skeleone", which is a pun playing on the word "skeleton": the suffix "-ton" in "skeleton" is a homophone for the English number "ten", so it is replaced with "-one" (the number 1) to make the new word. The bottom right panel corresponds to this pun, showing a single standalone femur bone to represent the "one" version of a skeleton.

This is a two-panel animated meme using clips from the 2007 DreamWorks film *Bee Movie*. The first panel shows female character Vanessa looking to her side, with an overlaid text that reads 'Bananas without the B is just pineapple'. Her boyfriend Ken is seen facing away in the background of the first panel. In the second panel, Ken turns around with a confused, annoyed, bewildered expression, while Vanessa looks down with a small, smug, satisfied smile after stating the absurd pun. The joke relies on wordplay: removing the letter 'B' from 'bananas' leaves 'ananas', which is the word for pineapple in many languages outside of English, making the statement technically correct but sounding nonsensical to most English speakers, prompting Ken's annoyed reaction.

The meme consists of two text sections at the top and a photograph below. The top text reads 'Physics: Exists' in bold, followed by 'Cats:' underneath. Below the text is a photograph of a black and white cat clinging to the arm of a gray couch. The cat's body is hanging off the couch arm, with its front paws gripping the edge and its head tilted upward, appearing to defy gravity. This creates a humorous contrast between the established laws of physics and cats' well-known ability to contort into seemingly impossible positions.

This meme is structured as a 2x2 infographic grid, with the title 'Types of Ketchup' printed at the top. Each grid cell features a side profile illustration of the classic bald Wojak internet meme character, with a portion of the head colored bright red. Each cell is labeled with a description of where the ketchup is located on the head: 'Ketchup on your eyes and forehead' (top left, red covers the forehead and eye area), 'Ketchup on the back of your head' (top right, red covers the rear of the head), 'Ketchup around the top of your head' (bottom left, red forms a band across the top of the head), and 'Ketchup on your entire head' (bottom right, the entire head is solid red). The joke is a dark, absurd visual pun: the red markings are identical to those used in common head injury/wound classification memes, but are deliberately mislabeled as ketchup for humorous effect.

This meme features a short three-part dialogue followed by a popular reaction image. The first line is a science teacher asking a student if they know Newton's second law, a core physics principle. The student replies that they are a science student, not a law student, misinterpreting the word 'law' in the scientific term to mean legal law studied by law school students. The final line labels the following reaction image as the science teacher's response: a distorted, widely used meme edit of Lord Farquaad from the Shrek franchise, staring with an unimpressed, baffled, annoyed expression at the student. The humor comes entirely from the pun on the double meaning of the word 'law' and the relatable experience of students giving silly or wrong answers in class.

This humorous meme uses a forced perspective optical illusion for comedic effect. The top of the image features text joking that people repaired ceilings by floating up to reach them before Isaac Newton 'invented' gravity. The lower portion is a photo taken from an angle in an office, where a bright backlit window hides the surface a man is standing on, creating the realistic illusion that he is floating unsupported in midair while reaching up to adjust a ceiling vent, with desks, computers, and other office workers visible below him.

A meme consisting of two parts: top text and an image. The top text reads: 'Someone: Whatever happens, happens. *Whatever happens. That someone:'. Below this text is a close-up image of Thanos, a purple-skinned character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, wearing armor with a shocked expression. At the bottom of the image is the word 'Impossible'. The humor arises from the contrast between the initial dismissive phrase 'Whatever happens, happens' (indicating nonchalance) and Thanos's shocked reaction labeled 'Impossible', implying the person's confidence is shattered when an unexpected event occurs.
