This is a screenshot of a verified X (formerly Twitter) post from user Brett Druck. His profile picture shows him looking down with an amused smile. The tweet text reads: "I think we can all agree that if your pizza isn't from New York or New Jersey it's probably from somewhere else." The humor comes from anti-humor: the statement is a completely obvious, tautological truth, presented as if it is a bold, widely agreed hot take about the well-debated topic of New York and New Jersey's reputation for high-quality pizza.

This meme repurposes the iconic photograph of an aide whispering urgent news to former US President George W. Bush during the 9/11 attacks, which is a widely used meme template for delivering unexpected or important information to an authority figure. The top overlaid text reads "MR. PRESIDENT, A SECOND", and the bottom text reads "IS 1/60 OF A MINUTE". The humor comes from the deadpan absurdity of framing a completely obvious, useless trivial fact about unit conversion as if it is urgent, groundbreaking news being delivered to the president, contrasting the serious tone of the original photograph with a silly, meaningless revelation.

This is a 4-panel collage meme. At the top of the image, text reads 'Cute duck to cheer you up' with a small grey tag marked 'Art' positioned below it. The first three panels feature slightly blurry, close-up shots of a soft, fluffy yellow plush duckling facing the camera, appearing to move closer to the viewer to create a cute, endearing effect. The bottom-left panel shows a small, pale duckling (or duck plush) lying upside down on its back on a glossy white tiled floor, appearing limp and unresponsive. The bottom-right panel is another close-up, blurry shot of the yellow plush duckling's face. The meme uses subversive anti-humor, setting up a wholesome, uplifting expectation then subverting it with the unexpected, slightly absurd shot of the collapsed duck.

This is a 4-panel absurdist comic meme. Panel 1: A man with a bicycle purchases a stick from a vendor who is selling sticks out of a cardboard box labeled 'STICKS'. Panel 2: The man inserts the purchased stick into the spokes of his bicycle's front wheel while riding. Panel 3: The wheel locks immediately, causing the man to crash violently onto the pavement as his bicycle breaks apart partially, while the vendor watches in confusion. Panel 4: The man stands back up unharmed, returns to the vendor, and says 'Perfect,, I'll take it', implying he bought the stick explicitly to test if it would crash his bike successfully, subverting all logical expectations of why someone would purchase a stick. The joke relies on anti-humor and the completely nonsensical motivation of the main character.
