Plan B Anyone? Cheesing a Hard Game Boss vs Patched Exploit

This is a two-panel meme using footage from the classic animated series *Tom and Jerry*. The top panel shows Butch the black cat straining to push a door closed, overlaid with text that reads 'Me trying to cheese a hard game boss'. The bottom panel shows the door shattering apart, with Jerry the mouse standing behind the broken door looking angry, while Butch still holds the broken door pieces, with text that reads 'The exploit has been patched'. The meme humorously references the common gaming practice of 'cheesing' (using unpatched exploits or easy loopholes) to defeat difficult boss fights, and the relatable frustration that occurs when game developers patch those exploits, removing the easy way to beat the boss.

This two-panel meme repurposes scenes from the classic animated series *Tom and Jerry* to satirize content restrictions on AI language model ChatGPT. The top panel features Tom Cat, labeled "ChatGPT", with an open, welcoming gesture alongside the text "HOW TO MAKE A BOMB"—referencing that ChatGPT directly refuses harmful, unethical instruction requests.

The meme consists of two main parts: a top text overlay and a photograph below. The text reads, 'Me, trying to convince my boss that another team building game is not the answer.' Below the text is an image of a person standing sideways, facing a red brick wall, with their hands raised and gesturing as if speaking to the wall. The humor stems from the metaphor of 'talking to a brick wall,' implying the boss is unresponsive or unwilling to listen to the argument against more team building games.

This is a two-panel comparison reaction meme. The top left text reads "WHEN THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPERS WORKED ON A GAME", paired with an image of a group of men leaning forward, cheering, pumping their fists, and pointing excitedly at something off-screen, showing extreme positive engagement. The bottom left text reads "WHEN THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPERS LEFT THE GAME", paired with an image of the same group of men leaning back with blank, bored, unimpressed and disappointed expressions, showing zero positive engagement. The meme satirizes the common trend of AAA video game franchises being high quality, exciting and well-received when developed by their original core teams, but dropping sharply in quality, becoming boring and underwhelming for players after the original developers leave the project or are replaced.

This is a two-panel relatable gaming meme that uses the popular Squidward folding lounge chair template from *SpongeBob SquarePants* to complain about a common frustrating issue in many video games.

The bottom panel shows a disappointed, annoyed Squidward dragging the lounge chair away to hide it, matching the text that explains the gun barely rotates, and is permanently stuck pointing in an entirely useless direction, making the weapon worthless. The meme expresses the common frustration players feel when encountering this poorly designed stationary weapon in games.

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.

This two-panel meme uses Patrick Star from *SpongeBob SquarePants* to satirize common user attitudes toward Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). - Left Panel: Patrick is depicted as a focused, competent scientist in a lab coat, using a microscope and taking notes, paired with the caption **2FA when I try to login**. This represents how many users view 2FA as an unnecessary, overly complex obstacle when accessing their own accounts, seeing it as a hassle rather than a security benefit. - Right Panel: Patrick is shown in his classic dumb, confused state—with a plank of wood on his head, holding a hammer, and poorly attempting to saw a piece of wood—paired with the caption **2FA after I got hacked**. This illustrates how users suddenly struggle to understand or implement 2FA properly *after* their account has been compromised, despite previously dismissing it. The humor stems from the relatable double standard of ignoring critical security measures until it's too late, exaggerated by Patrick's contrasting personas of fake intelligence and genuine incompetence.
