I’m not sure how the “when you…” relatable meme format was invented (discovered? developed in a lab?), but I am a sucker for it.
There’s the usual observations about experiences we all talk about a lot, but then there are the jokes about things you probably didn’t even realize you experienced them until some internet stranger married text to image in an avant-garde piece of psychological insight.
Here are 10 examples of stuff I didn’t even know that I knew before a meme brought it to my attention.

I need someone to make a meme with the caption “when you find a good ‘when you’ meme and your perception of reality changes”
Can anybody make that for me? What image would you use?
Let’s blow each others minds in the comments.
