This single-panel meme features text at the top that reads 'When you lie on your application but get the job anyway'. The image below shows a happy yellow Labrador retriever dog wearing a cheap green plastic dinosaur face mask, standing outside on dirt ground in front of a wire fence. Behind the fence are realistic full-size triceratops dinosaur statues, as if the dog is successfully pretending to be a dinosaur to fit in with the other dinosaur displays. The joke draws a relatable parallel: the dog faking its identity as a dinosaur and being accepted in the dinosaur exhibit is analogous to a person exaggerating qualifications or lying on a job application, then still getting hired and feeling out of place despite having secured the role.

This three-panel meme uses forced perspective to create a playful, humorous illusion. In the first panel, a light-colored dog appears to be positioned behind a blue sidewalk sign advertising a "Mortgage Adviser," making it look like the dog is the professional advisor. The second panel zooms in to show the full text on the sign: *"Meet our Mortgage Adviser, We're here to help you, Call us today"*, while the dog still seems to be behind it. The third panel reveals the trick: the dog is actually sitting next to the sign, not behind it, breaking the initial visual illusion. The top text caption reads: *"I highly doubt he's qualified, but I'll give it a shot."* The joke centers on the absurd idea of a dog working as a mortgage advisor, paired with the relatable sentiment of being open to trying something unconventional even if it seems unqualified.
