The "Arthur" meme originates from the beloved children's animated series *Arthur*, particularly a still image of the character Arthur's clenched fist. The meme gained popularity as a way to express frustration, anger, or mild annoyance, capturing the relatable feeling of holding back emotions. It often serves as a humorous reaction to irritating or unfair situations, resonating with audiences beyond the show's original young demographic. Variations of the meme sometimes include added captions or edited elements to further emphasize specific scenarios. The simplicity and versatility of the clenched fist image have made it a lasting and widely used meme format.
