Accidentally Text 'Wish You Were Her' Instead Of 'Wish You Were Here'
Dialogue
Overview
This is a single panel reaction meme. It features a still of the character Dwight Schrute from The Office (US) sitting in an office, covering his face with one hand in obvious mortification and cringing regret. Text at the top of the image reads 'Texted her "Wish you were her"', while text at the bottom reads 'instead of "Wish you were here"'. The humor comes from the deeply embarrassing typo, where the sender accidentally tells the person they are texting that they wish the recipient was another woman, rather than expressing that they wish the recipient was present with them, leading to extreme secondhand embarrassment that is perfectly mirrored by Dwight's expression.
