Panel 1: A young man wearing glasses and a dark blue top sits on a bed in a bedroom, pointing a TV remote at an offscreen television normally. Panel 2: He leans back, raising his arm holding the remote higher, in a common first attempt to make an unresponsive remote work. Panel 3: He has stood up off the bed, holding the remote even higher as he moves further away from the bed.

In the top panel, a man in a suit stands at a podium featuring the Reddit logo (blue with white alien head), raising his right hand and asking "Who hates Reddit?" via a speech bubble.

This is a 4-panel relatable meme. Panel 1 features a crudely drawn, smiling stick figure with large round glasses standing next to an illustrated human brain, with the text 'hey brain hows it goin?' above, showing the person checking in on their own mental state.

Panel 3 shows the same smiling stick figure waiting silently with no text. Panel 4 shows the stick figure still smiling, with the short text 'yea' above, implying that the completely disorganized brain gave a casual, unconcerned confirmation that everything is fine, despite the obvious chaos.
