The "guy pointing" meme, also known as the "guy pointing at something" meme, originated from a stock photo featuring a man pointing toward an off-screen object with an exaggerated expression of enthusiasm or surprise. It became widely popular around 2019, particularly on platforms like Twitter and Reddit, where users added humorous captions to the image. The meme typically features a character pointing at something, with text on the image indicating either an obvious or ironic observation. Its versatility has allowed it to be used in countless variations, often in a satirical or sarcastic manner, making it a staple in meme culture.
