This is a two-panel hand-drawn stick figure meme themed around website cookie consent popups. The top panel is titled 'How to deal with cookies' and shows the 'Accept all' option as a low-effort activity: a stick figure walks easily across a flat gymnastics mat with zero strain. The bottom panel depicts all non-accept cookie options as extremely high-effort, intense physical activities: 'Manage Cookies' is shown as a high bar gymnastics routine, 'Customize Settings' as a backflip on a pole, 'Toggle' as swinging on gymnastic rings, 'Disable' as an exaggerated cheering pose after a hard routine, and 'Save preferences' as a stunt jumping over a burning, crashing car. The core joke is a relatable observation that most websites intentionally make accepting all tracking cookies extremely simple, while opting out or customizing cookie settings requires navigating convoluted, time-consuming steps that feel as tiring as a full workout, aligning with the meme's title that rejecting cookies should count as daily exercise.
