    So we call these wojacks? Im behind the curve on this one. I get the exstitenial crisis illustrated. And the ai aspect is another whole layer, but tbh im more curious where the name came from.

      Wojak is a polish word that means something like “soldier” or “fighter.” Wojak images generally intend to convey someone in great pain, but dealing with it.

      Wojak was someone’s username on a german-language meme board. It’s unclear how this picture got associated with him though.
