Relatable Final Draft Submission Apology Meme

This meme features a two-part setup and punchline. The top text reads 'When you finally send your professor the final draft'. Below this, an illustration taken from the classic Frog and Toad children's book series shows a frog in a jacket handing an envelope to a snail. An added text box next to the frog reads 'Here is an insurmountable amount of garbage. It disgusts me as well. I apologize in advance.' The joke plays on the common, relatable student experience of feeling deeply unconfident in the quality of a final assignment, and wanting to preemptively apologize to their professor for submitting work they perceive as low quality.
