Me @ the sky waiting for the thunderstorm; Do the roar.

Overview

This meme has two core sections: the top text reads "Me @ the sky waiting for the thunderstorm", followed by a still of the spoiled young boy character from Shrek Forever After holding a large red and white swirly lollipop with a demanding, insistent expression. Text overlaid on the character still says "Do the roar.". The joke plays on the relatable experience of people who enjoy thunderstorms eagerly anticipating loud thunder, comparing this eager expectation to the boy's repeated demand that Shrek roar for him in the original film scene.

Origin notes

The base visual comes from a famous scene in the 2010 DreamWorks animated film Shrek Forever After, which has been a widely used meme template for years due to the character's obnoxious, pushy tone. This specific edited version adds text to frame the template around thunderstorm anticipation, and it is shared on X (formerly Twitter) by the account meme.jpg, as confirmed by the provided RSS source information.

The meme consists of two parts: text at the top that reads "Me waiting for my mom to get ready after she yelled at me for not being ready", paired with a screenshot of a blank-stared, exasperated yellow incidental fish character from SpongeBob SquarePants sitting alone in a small motor boat at the shore. The image perfectly captures the relatable, ironic frustration of being chastised for being slow to get ready, only to end up waiting a long time for the parent who yelled at you to finish preparing to leave.

At the top, white text on a black background reads "When anyone asks my favorite weather" followed by "This, I crave this."

A meme featuring a top text caption 'Me in the shower waiting for the hot water' combined with an image of a person standing precariously on a narrow cliff edge with a steep mountain drop below. The humor arises from the exaggerated contrast between the mundane, everyday situation of waiting for hot water and the dramatic, high-stakes visual of being in a dangerous, tense position on a cliff, mocking the impatience or perceived 'agony' of waiting for hot water to start during a shower.

This two-panel meme uses a scene from *Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back* to joke about how inaccurate weather apps are. The top panel shows a completely soaked Luke Skywalker standing in heavy rain, with text reading "You told me it would stop raining!". In the bottom panel, Darth Vader's head is replaced with the default partly cloudy weather app icon, with the text "I lied", meaning the weather forecast that said rain would stop was wrong. The top of the meme says "Every time", referencing how this inaccurate forecast happens repeatedly.

This is a three-panel image macro meme centered on the relatable experience of oversleeping after planning a short snooze. The top primary text reads: *When you wake up but want to lay down for one more minute*. The first panel shows a real person with open eyes, labeled "8:02 am" (depicting waking up initially). The second panel shows the same person with their eyes closed, implying they fell back asleep. The third panel returns to the person with open eyes, labeled "11:39 am"—highlighting that what was intended as a one-minute nap turned into several hours of sleep. The meme humorously exaggerates a common daily struggle with snoozing and losing track of time.

This is a relatable comedy meme that jokes about a common awkward experience at the dentist: when a patient is sitting in the dental chair with their mouth propped wide open, full of dental tools and unable to speak, the dentist unexpectedly asks them the open-ended question 'So how's life going' that they can't answer. The meme uses the classic edited visual gag from *SpongeBob SquarePants*, where Patrick Star's entire arm is shoved into SpongeBob's wide open mouth, perfectly mimicking the patient's situation of being unable to reply. The text follows the popular 'Nobody:' meme format, which sets up that no one prompted this awkward interaction, it just happens from the dentist.

This is a relatable humorous meme consisting of text positioned above a photo of a classic yellow Lego minifigure with a blank, forced smile, black hair, and a red shirt. The text lays out a common awkward social scenario: the narrator is actively trying to avoid being awkward during a casual interaction, when another person makes small talk by saying 'nice weather'. The narrator accidentally gives an illogical, awkward response of 'thanks', and the smiling Lego minifigure perfectly illustrates the strained, cringey internal feeling after making the embarrassing social misstep.

This meme features text at the top reading 'when I enter a school zone going 120 mph', placed above an illustration of Painty the Pirate, the iconic character from the SpongeBob SquarePants intro sequence, set against an ocean and sky background with a green parrot on his shoulder. Text overlaid at the bottom of the illustration shows the pirate's famous line 'are ya ready kids?'. The joke relies on dark, absurd humor: driving extremely fast (120 mph, far exceeding the typical low speed limit in school zones) into an area with children, repurposing the originally cheerful introductory line as a menacing, provocative line directed at the children in the school zone the driver is approaching recklessly.

This is a humorous single-panel meme featuring a still shot of the character Mr. Bean standing at the edge of a paved road next to an expansive field of bright yellow flowers under a light blue sky. The character is smiling and looking off to the right as if waiting patiently. Text at the top of the meme reads 'How villains be waiting for heroes to suit up and be ready', while a label placed over the character reads 'Villain'. The meme jokes about the common overused trope in superhero and action media, where villains conveniently wait to attack until the hero has fully put on their costume, finished preparing, or completed their monologue, rather than attacking the hero when they are off-guard and vulnerable.

A photograph of a white cat wearing a large, vibrant yellow sunflower costume with red accents around its head. The cat has its eyes closed, giving a sleepy or content expression, and appears to be sitting calmly. Above the cat, there is a bold text overlay that reads: 'Be the ray of fucking sunshine that someone needs today'. The background features a dark couch and a remote control on a surface, indicating an indoor home setting. The combination of the cute cat in a sunflower costume and the uplifting (with mild profanity for humor) message creates a wholesome and lighthearted vibe.

This is a relatable expectation vs reality meme. The top text first states "Me: I can't wait for my day off", followed by "Me on my day off:". Below the text is a still of actor Oscar Isaac as the title character from *Inside Llewyn Davis*, slumping on a couch looking exhausted, disheveled, and completely unmotivated, holding a disposable coffee cup with both hands. The joke highlights the common experience of looking forward to days off to rest, enjoy hobbies, or be productive, but actually feeling too drained and lethargic to do anything meaningful when the day off arrives.

This is a two-panel relatable humor meme. The top panel shows a rain-soaked, furious Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith standing in heavy rain, confronting the other character with the line "You told me it would stop raining!". The bottom panel shows the character he is speaking to, whose head has been edited to be replaced by the official Apple Weather mobile application icon, responding with the line "I lied". The joke pokes fun at the common real-life annoyance of weather apps frequently providing incorrect precipitation forecasts, failing to accurately predict when rain will end.
