This is a relatable reaction meme that uses a stark visual metaphor: a single small person stands on a sandy beach facing an extremely large, towering incoming ocean wave. The massive wave is labeled 'NEWS OF A NEW VIRAL OUTBREAK SPREADING', while the tiny person is labeled 'ME'. The gag highlights the overwhelming, helpless feeling many people experience when hearing announcements of new public health outbreaks, emphasizing how large and intimidating the impending problem feels from an individual perspective.

This is a two-panel reaction meme. The top panel is a screenshot of a verified X (formerly Twitter) post from BNO News, reporting that a French citizen is in isolation undergoing hantavirus testing after developing mild symptoms, having shared a flight with a woman who died of hantavirus in Johannesburg. The bottom panel is a well-known screenshot from the video game *Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas*, showing protagonist Carl 'CJ' Johnson from behind walking down an alley, with the iconic caption 'Ah shit, here we go again.' The meme conveys exasperation and weary frustration at the announcement of another potential new disease outbreak, in the context of prior global public health emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic.

This meme combines a screenshot of a science news post from Reddit with an edited 4-panel comic of Lisa Simpson from The Simpsons for comedic effect. The top section shows a Reddit post announcing that human trials have begun for an experimental drug that would allow adults to regrow lost teeth. The bottom 4-panel edit shows Lisa Simpson aging from 11 to 18 years old, with each panel showing progressively more teeth growing in her mouth, ending with a giant single enormous tooth bursting out of her jaw at age 18. The joke exaggerates the effect of the new drug for absurdist humor, matching the original title 'Me in real life' by framing it as the poster's own hypothetical outcome with the new drug.
