This is a relatable reaction meme using a screenshot of Dr. Zoidberg from the animated series *Futurama*.

The bottom text shows an angry Zoidberg yelling, "That's MY joke!

The bottom text repeats the template's iconic catchphrase.

The top panel shows streamer Hasan Piker with an enthusiastic, hopeful expression, pointing forward, paired with text that reads 'Finding a Reddit post that perfectly describes my problem with possible fixes'.

This worked!"'.

This is a multi-panel meme using the popular progressive Vince McMahon reaction template. It builds up the following scenario: a user posts a controversial statement online, faces backlash from other users, then receives overwhelming support from their own supporters, gains 500 upvotes in an hour with most users agreeing with their take, and even earns a platform award for the post. Vince McMahon's expressions get increasingly more excited as the scenario builds up, but the punchline comes an hour later: the post is removed by platform censorship, and Vince's expression drops to a deadpan disappointed look. The meme jokes about the common frustrating experience of having a popular, user-supported controversial post taken down by platform content moderation, ruining the excitement of viral success.

This is a two-panel reaction meme using the iconic death of Uncle Ben scene from the 2002 Sam Raimi Spider-Man film. The top panel shows a distressed Peter Parker asking 'UNCLE BEN WHAT HAPPENED?'. The bottom panel shows the dying Uncle Ben, with a Reddit post upvote/downvote counter showing a total score of -67k placed over his face, paired with the caption 'I POSTED AN UNPOPULAR OPINION ON R/UNPOPULAROPINION'. The joke lies in the widely observed irony that the r/unpopularopinion subreddit, which is meant to showcase opinions that go against mainstream consensus, regularly downvotes genuinely unpopular opinions shared by users, defeating the purpose of the sub.
