A meme image set in an outdoor urban park with grass, trees, and distant cars. On the left, a person wearing a pink dress with white bunny ears sits on the ground in a pensive pose (chin resting on hand), labeled 'Taiping Rebellion'. To the right, two individuals crouch down, facing away from the camera, labeled 'Historian'. Above the crouching pair is text: 'World War 2 & The Great War'. The humor satirizes the tendency of historians (or popular historical focus) to prioritize well-known conflicts like World War 2 and WWI while overlooking significant but less globally recognized events like the Taiping Rebellion.

A black and white historical photograph featuring John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and a maid in a bedroom setting. John Lennon stands wearing a white robe with hands in pockets, Yoko Ono sits on a chair to the left, and a maid in a uniform holds a pillow. Background signs include phrases like 'STAY IN-BED' and 'GROW YOUR HAIR'. The meme's top text satirizes their 1969 bed-in protest by humorously suggesting they wait for a maid to make the bed before continuing their anti-system protest, highlighting perceived hypocrisy.

Bottom-left panel: two bear-like silhouettes, one holding a stick, resembling Teletubbies. Bottom-right panel: a diagram labeled 'SADDAM'S HIDING PLACE' showing Saddam Hussein in an underground hole with labels 'Entrance hidden by bricks and rubble,' 'Air vent,' and 'Fan,' referencing his 2003 capture. The meme mocks overactive pattern recognition, often associated with conspiracy theories.

The tombstone also includes text 'Area of Star City The Green Arrow,' referencing the fictional Star City from 'Arrow.' Overlaid on the individuals' faces are national flags of former Soviet republics (e.g., Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Armenia, etc.). The group displays celebratory gestures like thumbs up and peace signs, humorously marking the anniversary of the Soviet Union's collapse.
