This is a dark mode screenshot of a public X (formerly Twitter) post. The post is published by the verified account "Cursed Posts", whose profile picture features a popular unimpressed, skeptical Black man reaction image. The text of the post reads "hey there delilah can i borrow 20 dollars", which is a humorous pun modifying the opening line of the famous 2006 romantic pop song "Hey There Delilah" by Plain White T's, replacing the expected heartfelt lyrics with a silly, mundane request to borrow money. The juxtaposition of the iconic song line with the casual, unexpected request, paired with the unimpressed profile picture, creates the comedic effect of the meme.

The post features satirical text that reads: 'Good thing we didn't raise the minimum wage or everything would be so expensive right now'. The joke uses sarcasm to mock a common conservative argument against raising minimum wage, which claims that wage increases would cause significant inflation and higher cost of living.
