Shrek in sparkly purple outfit representing discomfort of wearing non-black clothes
Text content
How i feel whenever I wear something other than black
Overview
This meme features the animated ogre character Shrek, edited to wear a tight, glittery bright purple full-body outfit instead of his usual plain dark brown attire. He stands in a crowded street setting with a slightly awkward, out-of-place expression on his face. Overlaid white text on the image reads "How i feel whenever I wear something other than black". The meme humorously conveys the relatable feeling of discomfort and self-consciousness that people who typically only wear dark or black clothing experience when they wear brighter, more eye-catching garments, comparing that awkward feeling to how absurd Shrek looks in the uncharacteristic sparkly outfit.
