AboutWhat does the meme depict?

Pick Up Line Panda is a meme from the advice animal image macro category, featuring a panda standing next to a tree stump with a beer bottle in one of its paws. In typical meme format, the panda is depicted delivering a pickup line that starts with a clichéd phrase, which then abruptly shifts to a blunt and often hilariously inappropriate conclusion.
