AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The 'McKayla is Not Impressed' meme features an image of American gymnast McKayla Maroney displaying a scowling expression. This photograph was taken during the medal ceremony at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, capturing her clear disappointment after winning a silver medal.

OriginWho did it first?

McKayla Maroney was anticipated to win a gold medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London after an impressive first vault. However, her performance during the second vault was flawed, leading to a fall. Despite her efforts, Maroney received a score of 15.083 and ultimately ended the competition with a silver medal. Her displeasure was evident during the medal ceremony where Bryan Snyder captured her now-famous scowling expression. Shortly after, on August 7, 2012, the trend took off when the blog McKayla is Not Impressed was created on Tumblr to showcase altered images featuring Maroney's unimpressed expression in various humorous or extraordinary backdrops. This concept was similar to the earlier blog 'Spock is Not Impressed' which used images of the Star Trek character Spock. Watch her vault performance in the Olympic video.^[1]
