Similar meme formats
- And Then I Said
Use this when the joke is that someone says a shameless, hypocritical, manipulative, or obviously false line and then the in-group laughs about it afterward. It works especially well for politicians, bosses, corporations, teachers, or any clique acting smug because they know the audience has to accept the absurd line.
- Captain Hindsight
Use this when the joke is that someone shows up after a mistake, failure, or disaster and offers painfully obvious advice that would only have been useful beforehand. It fits requests about useless post-event commentary, Monday-morning quarterbacking, or people acting smart only once the damage is already done.
- Comic Book Guy
Use this template for snarky overreactions, especially when someone wants to mock a bad opinion, disappointing product, weak excuse, or nerdy/media-related letdown. The joke works best when the caption sounds like Comic Book Guy issuing an exaggerated, superior review, often with a harsh verdict in the second line.
- Disaster Girl
Use this when the joke is that the speaker secretly caused a mess, escalation, or catastrophe and is pretending to be innocent. It also fits situations where someone is smugly enjoying the fallout while everyone else is alarmed.
- Drakeposting
Use this format for a clean A/B preference: rejecting one option and endorsing another. It works best when the two captions are parallel alternatives, so the joke is in how strongly the second choice is preferred over the first.
- Hipster Barista
Use this when the joke is about someone acting condescendingly niche, artisanal, or anti-mainstream, especially around coffee, music, food, or taste. The format works best when the first line sets up a hipster preference or situation and the second line delivers an elitist, ironic, or absurdly pretentious twist.
