The meme displays a screenshot of a DoorDash food delivery checkout page, with a frustrated text comment at the top stating "Ight They just makin shit up now". A $1.50 line item labeled "Chicago Fee" is circled in red to draw attention to the seemingly arbitrary, unexplained extra charge added on top of standard subtotal, tax, and delivery costs. A note at the bottom explains that the restaurant China Doll pays up to 30% of order subtotals to DoorDash to cover delivery costs for drivers and business expenses. The joke highlights the widespread frustration with confusing, hidden extra fees charged by food delivery apps that appear to be invented with little justification.

This image is a screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) from user @pheenoh, who captions the post 'This is the greatest email I've ever received'. Attached to the post is a screenshot of an email from food delivery service DoorDash, sent to the user after an unsatisfactory Shake Shack order on May 12, 2022. The email's subject line reads 'We're sorry, please enjoy $0 off your next order', and the body confirms that as compensation for the poor service, the user will receive $0 in DoorDash credits. The humor derives from the absurdly useless, meaningless 'compensation' offered by the company as an apology for failing to meet their service standards, which is so ridiculous the poster finds it noteworthy and funny.

The meme has a top text caption that reads "Me defending my liver from the delivery men" above a low-resolution, blurry screenshot from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video game series. The screenshot shows a character wearing a hooded outfit and protective face covering holding up an object to block a group of small approaching figures on the left side of the frame, which represent delivery workers. The joke is a relatable humorous take on the common habit of ordering unhealthy takeout food and alcoholic drinks via delivery services, all of which can harm liver health. The character is framed as the user themselves, comically acting as if they are fending off delivery workers to avoid consuming unhealthy items and protect their liver.

This is a screenshot of an X (formerly Twitter) tweet featuring an absurdist humorous joke. The first two lines of text are an overly dramatic existential statement from the tweet poster: "I don't want to DIE, I want to BE DEAD. why is that so hard to grasp?" The punchline follows, revealing that this dramatic line is being said to a Domino's pizza delivery worker who is only asking the customer to sign for their order so they can leave. The humor derives from the unexpected, jarring contrast between the heavy, high-stakes existential sentiment and the low-stakes, mundane context of receiving a food delivery.

This is a screenshot of an X (formerly Twitter) post. The poster, SarahFatemiComedy, shares that their DoorDash delivery driver uploaded the attached photo as proof of delivery. The photo shows the food delivery bag placed on the doormat outside the open front door, while the delivery driver is peeking out from behind the door frame with a surprised, startled expression, looking directly at the camera. The humor comes from the unexpected appearance of the driver in the delivery proof, which is typically only intended to show the order was left at the customer's door.

This is a screenshot of a social media post from a user going by 'the government man', who uses a grumpy cartoon old man as their profile picture. The post makes a humorous observation about the Domino's pizza order tracker: the tracker shows that a staff member named Alfred both prepared the user's pizza order and is performing the quality check on it. The user jokes that this setup counts as a conflict of interest, humorously applying formal corporate and government oversight terminology to a mundane fast food delivery experience for comedic effect.

The meme is formatted as a delivery update sent to a customer. The top text reads 'Your delivery' above a photo of an orange tabby cat standing on a concrete porch in front of a security screen door, sniffing a plastic bag containing iced drink orders left on the ground next to the door. Below the photo, a message from the delivery person named Sabrina reads 'A cat smelled them sorry haha'. The humor comes from the delivery provider sending photographic proof of the minor, harmless delivery interference by the curious cat, rather than just notifying the customer verbally, making the minor inconvenience feel lighthearted and funny.

This image is a screenshot of an iMessage exchange related to a DoorDash food delivery order. The sender first informs the recipient the conversation concerns a DoorDash order, then attempts to tell the recipient that the restaurant is out of lasagna, misspelling the word three times in a row as 'lesayna', 'lasanya', and 'Laysanya' before finally giving up and referring to the food as 'The shit Garfield eat' to communicate what item they are talking about. The humor comes from the relatable experience of forgetting how to spell a common everyday word, and the instantly recognizable pop culture reference to the cartoon character Garfield's famous obsession with lasagna as a last-ditch way to get the point across.

This meme uses the popular step-by-step clown makeup progression format to joke about the ridiculously high extra fees charged by the DoorDash food delivery platform. It starts with a person planning to order a $12 item via DoorDash, then each step adds another extra fee (dasher tip, service fee, an additional existing fee) until the final total comes out to an absurd $74, with the person fully transformed into a clown to imply that only a clown would pay this massively marked-up price. It is a relatable joke about the excessive hidden fees common on third-party food delivery apps.

This is a viral meme that is a screenshot of an anonymous confession post from Reddit's r/confession subreddit. The poster admits to running a fake ghost restaurant on major food delivery apps: they registered a company, bought generic takeaway packaging from Amazon, advertise via leaflets, and resell pre-made frozen microwave meals (adding small cosmetic touches like extra cheese to make the food look homemade). They earn roughly £200 per day in revenue, operate the entire business out of their own home kitchen, note that home kitchen operation is technically legal in their area, and expect to pass any upcoming hygiene inspection. They end by asking if they should feel guilty, and state they feel proud to have escaped the traditional 9-to-5 work grind. The meme is titled 'Wait, that's illegal' referencing that while the business is technically legal, it violates consumer trust and expectations.

This is a relatable humor meme that jokes about a common modern habit. The top text sets up the premise: the person decides to stay home in order to avoid spending any money. The left panel shows the person lying in bed under blankets, browsing on their smartphone while staying home. The right side shows the result of staying in: top right has food delivery bags including a McDonald's bag left at the front door, bottom right has a large pile of Amazon online shopping boxes delivered to the home. The joke is that staying home doesn't actually save money, because people just end up ordering delivery and online shopping to their door instead of going out to spend.

This image is a screenshot of a Reddit post from the r/Money subreddit. The original poster is a 44-year-old restaurant owner who owns four fast casual locations, and he questions how young people (especially high school-aged kids and his own entry-level employees) can afford to order food delivery via services like DoorDash multiple times per week. He explains that delivery adds massive markup and fees: a $16 poké bowl purchased in-restaurant ends up costing nearly $30 after delivery fees and tip. He notes even his own employees who get a free meal at work when they work any shift still regularly order other restaurant delivery to the store, despite only making $16 an hour. The underlying point, echoed by the 9Gag repost context, is that many people who order delivery frequently don't realize how much money they waste compared to preparing food at home.
