Tables Turned When Your Younger Brother Grows Up

This is a relatable humor meme. The top of the image has text that reads 'When you used to beat your younger brother but he grew up:'. Below the text is a screenshot from the classic animated series *Tom and Jerry*: Tom the cat is standing in a doorway holding a wooden baseball bat raised over his head as if he intended to attack, but he is pressed up against a much larger, buff, angry mouse (Muscles, Jerry's cousin) who is staring menacingly at Tom. The scene humorously illustrates the role reversal when a smaller, previously picked-on younger sibling grows bigger and stronger than the older sibling who used to bully them.
