This meme combines a 4chan-style greentext narrative with a close-up reaction image of a wide-eyed shocked cat. The greentext describes a common frustrating experience with ride-sharing apps: a user first checks the price of an Uber or Lyft ride and sees it costs $12. They go to get ready to leave by putting on their shoes and grabbing their keys, then check the price again just to confirm, only to find the price has jumped dramatically to $30 due to surge pricing. The cat's stunned wide-eyed expression perfectly captures the user's shocked and annoyed reaction to the unexpected price hike.

The meme features a top text caption that reads 'Boomers when you tell them you can't afford their home they bought for $40,000 in 1984 for $600,000 in 2022', paired with a screenshot of an enraged, yelling middle-aged animated male character from Pixar's *The Incredibles*, who is adjusting his glasses while appearing incredulous and furious.

This is a single-panel reaction meme. At the top, black text on a white background reads 'When my mom joins some Facebook group and now the entire family are vegans'. Below the text, a fluffy white cat with an annoyed, grumpy facial expression sits upright on a soft grey blanket, staring disapprovingly at a small plate of green salad with two cherry tomatoes placed in front of it.
