A Stabbage: Cabbage Stab Visual Pun Meme

The meme displays a whole green head of cabbage set on a red-tiled kitchen counter, with numerous kitchen knives of varying sizes plunged into it from every direction, giving the cabbage the appearance of a pincushion or a voodoo doll. The text overlaid at the bottom reads 'A Stabbage™', a comedic pun that blends the words 'stab' (referring to the knives stuck in the vegetable) and 'cabbage' (the vegetable itself). The background features a small compact white refrigerator, a glass door leading to an adjacent room with a wooden slatted chair, and miscellaneous small kitchen items like a tall empty glass near the door.

A Stabbage™

Overview

The meme displays a whole green head of cabbage set on a red-tiled kitchen counter, with numerous kitchen knives of varying sizes plunged into it from every direction, giving the cabbage the appearance of a pincushion or a voodoo doll. The text overlaid at the bottom reads 'A Stabbage™', a comedic pun that blends the words 'stab' (referring to the knives stuck in the vegetable) and 'cabbage' (the vegetable itself). The background features a small compact white refrigerator, a glass door leading to an adjacent room with a wooden slatted chair, and miscellaneous small kitchen items like a tall empty glass near the door.

Origin notes

This original user-created meme was first shared on the Reddit r/Meme subreddit. The original poster noted that the concept for the meme came to them in a dream approximately 3 months before they created and posted the image. It is a real-life physical setup photographed in a home kitchen, with no significant digital edits beyond adding the pun text overlay.

This two-panel meme uses the iconic Wojak (Feels Guy) character to humorously illustrate the universal experience of cutting onions. **Panel 1**: Wojak, with a stern, focused expression, holds a knife and faces a whole, uncut onion, appearing ready to begin chopping. **Panel 2**: Wojak is shown crying heavily, with tears streaming down his face, while the onion in front of him is now chopped into small, fine pieces. The meme exaggerates the irritating effect of onion fumes on the eyes, framing it as an intense emotional reaction that anyone who has cut onions can relate to.

This is a lighthearted silly pun meme formatted like a missing dog notice. At the top, the text reads 'Missing dog. If anyone ceasar, lettuce know' which uses homophone wordplay: 'ceasar' sounds like 'see her' and 'lettuce' sounds like 'let us', so the phrase actually means 'If anyone sees her, let us know', which is a common line on missing pet posters. Below the text, there is a sculpture of a dog shaped entirely out of green lettuce and cabbage leaves, which ties the pun together visually: Caesar salad is a popular lettuce-based salad, so the joke combines the wordplay with a literal lettuce/Caesar dog.

This image shows two gloved hands holding a small bright red cherry tomato on a light-colored cutting surface. The positioning of the hands and the tomato creates an accidental suggestive optical illusion that resembles an inappropriate intimate act, which is the source of the meme's humor. The joke plays on the misleading visual that looks sexual at first glance, but is actually just someone handling a tomato.

This is an edited meme using the classic fantasy knights drawing swords at a round table template. Two knights representing the United States and United Kingdom have speech bubbles that say "Pineapple", while swords decorated with flags of almost all other countries in the world point towards the word "ananas" written at the center of the table. The joke highlights that English is a major outlier in naming the pineapple fruit, as nearly all other global languages use a variant of the word "ananas" for the same fruit.

This two-panel wholesome pun meme uses a public domain portrait of William Shakespeare and a stock image of a pear to create a phonetic joke. **Panel 1**: Shows two separate elements: left is Shakespeare's portrait labeled *William*, right is a green pear labeled *Pear*. **Panel 2**: Edits the portrait to have a hand extending from it holding the pear, with the combined label *William Shakespear* (a playful misspelling of Shakespeare, replacing 'speare' with 'pear' to match the fruit). The humor comes from the phonetic similarity between 'spear' (from Shakespeare) and 'pear', creating a lighthearted, silly gag.

A meme consisting of two parts: top text and an image with a caption. The top text reads: 'Me: *cutting food with knife* Family member: “That’s the wrong kind of knife” Me:'. Below the text is a screenshot from the animated film 'The Incredibles' featuring Bob Parr (Mr. Incredible), a large man with blonde hair and a blue shirt, leaning forward aggressively with an angry expression, pointing his finger towards a young boy (Dash Parr) who is looking up at him. At the bottom of the image, bold white text reads 'KNIFE IS KNIFE!', humorously conveying the meme's punchline that any knife is sufficient despite the family member's criticism.

The meme is split into text sections on a black top bar, followed by an edited cartoon image. The top text reads 'Me: Knowing that cactuses have sharp spikes', then the next line reads 'Also me everytime I see a cactus:'. Below this, an edited screenshot of Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants wearing a jellyfishing hat is shown reaching his hand out toward a potted cactus with obvious sharp spikes, with the single word 'Touch' overlaid at the bottom of the image. The joke highlights the common relatable human impulse to do things that a person logically knows will cause them harm or pain, just out of curiosity or spontaneous urge.

This meme features text placed above a close-up photograph. The text poses a humorous, relatable trivial grievance: it questions why the vegetable widely known as 'red onion' is labeled as red, when its actual visible color is clearly purple, adding that the author has been thinking about this minor inconsistency for a while and is growing frustrated by it. The photo below shows a pile of freshly diced red onions that are distinctly purple in color, visually confirming the point made in the text. The joke plays on the common experience of noticing and fixating on small, inconsequential oddities in everyday life and common naming conventions.

This is a relatable meme about the common human experience of random unwanted intrusive thoughts. The top text sets up the scenario: the author is washing a large kitchen knife, when their brain suddenly generates the intrusive impulse telling them to 'hit yourself' with the knife. The bottom half of the meme shows a blurry close-up photograph of a white parrot with extremely wide, startled eyes, conveying the shocked, nervous reaction the author has to this sudden unsettling thought. The meme jokes about the universal experience of random bad thoughts that pop into your head out of nowhere when holding something dangerous.

This is a two-panel animated meme using clips from the 2007 DreamWorks film *Bee Movie*. The first panel shows female character Vanessa looking to her side, with an overlaid text that reads 'Bananas without the B is just pineapple'. Her boyfriend Ken is seen facing away in the background of the first panel. In the second panel, Ken turns around with a confused, annoyed, bewildered expression, while Vanessa looks down with a small, smug, satisfied smile after stating the absurd pun. The joke relies on wordplay: removing the letter 'B' from 'bananas' leaves 'ananas', which is the word for pineapple in many languages outside of English, making the statement technically correct but sounding nonsensical to most English speakers, prompting Ken's annoyed reaction.
