AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The 'Traumatized Mr. Incredible' meme features two contrasting images of Mr. Incredible from the movie 'The Incredibles 2.' The first image displays a normal, colored depiction of the character, derived from official art for the movie. Adjacent to it is a black-and-white, 'reverse toonified' version of the same character, altered to show him with a shocked or emotionally pained expression reminiscent of the Withered Wojak meme. This setup is typically used in comparison memes with captions 'People Who Don't Know' and 'People Who Know' juxtaposing ignorance and painful awareness.

OriginWho did it first?

The meme originated from a post on Twitter (now X) by user @CitizenPlain on October 15th, 2020. The tweet featured a series of four 'reverse toonified' versions of characters from 'The Incredibles,' including a two-panel image that compared Mr. Incredible's official concept art to its black-and-white 'reverse toonified' version created using the StyleGAN network.^[1]
