This 4-panel comparative meme illustrates a common stereotype about fatherhood. The top two panels are labeled 'Dad with Daughter', showing actor Robert Downey Jr. relaxing on a beach lounge chair while holding his young daughter, who is wrapped in an orange towel, before leaning in to give her a gentle kiss. The bottom two panels are labeled 'Dad with Son', showing actor Chris Hemsworth at the beach playfully holding his young son upside down by his ankles, first lifting the boy with one hand then hoisting him high with both hands in rough, energetic play. The humor comes from the widely recognized trope that fathers are often far more gentle, protective, and soft when caring for daughters, while they engage in more physical, rough-and-tumble playful activity with sons.

This is a 2-panel reaction meme using clips from the animated show SpongeBob SquarePants. The top panel shows a large, terrifying green monster with sharp teeth looming over a small, frightened SpongeBob, with the caption 'Fear of heights' applied to the monster. The bottom panel shows SpongeBob looking completely unimpressed, bored, and unbothered, with the caption 'Construction workers' applied to him.
