Serious Cat Meme Generator
Your flatmate announces the washing up is "basically done". You look at the sink, then at him, then at the pan with last night's pasta fused to it. You say nothing. The silence does the work.
Someone in the group chat sends a ten-paragraph message about a minor change to the rota. Three people reply with exclamation marks. You read it twice, put the phone face down and carry on staring at the wall.
A colleague opens with "this might be a silly question" and then asks the thing that was covered in the meeting you both attended. You nod slowly. Your face has already given its answer.
Your mate finishes a long story about his weekend and looks at you expectantly. You have been waiting for the point since the second sentence. "Cool story," you say, and mean it in the least possible way.
Why it caught on: the picture shows a white cat with a flat, unimpressed stare, sitting in front of a laptop. People captioned it with blunt, deadpan replies and the occasional rude one-liner, since the face suits a cat that has heard enough. It spread because anyone can use it to answer a boring or silly remark without saying much at all.
