The "Mike Wazowski" meme originates from the 2001 Pixar film *Monsters, Inc.*, where Mike Wazowski, a one-eyed green monster voiced by Billy Crystal, becomes an iconic character. The meme specifically refers to a scene where Mike is seen in an awkward or funny situation, often cropped to highlight his single eye. It gained traction in the 2010s when users began pairing images of Mike Wazowski with humorous or relatable captions, often referencing feelings of awkwardness, misunderstanding, or self-consciousness. The meme’s appeal lies in Mike's expressive face and his lovable yet comical persona, making him a symbol of relatable social struggles.
