This is a single-panel cartoon meme. The left side of the image shows two people, an adult woman and a young child, both seen from behind, standing beside a grassy park path looking at a small group of geese on the path. The woman points at the geese, with text next to her reading "Omg Geese! I wonder what they are thinking?".

The joke subverts the expectation that the geese would have complex inner thoughts, leaning into the widely known popular association of geese with their loud, frequent honking noises.

This meme pairs a photo of a fluffy yellow baby duckling on the right side with text complaining about smartphone autocorrect on the left. The joke is a vulgar pun: the creator almost certainly meant to type the swear word 'fuck' when typing, but autocorrect kept automatically changing it to the innocuous word 'duck'. The text reads 'Dear autocorrect. It's never duck. Its NEVER duck', repeating the complaint that autocorrect is wrong, and the inclusion of the actual duckling image emphasizes the pun for comedic effect.
