      Here’s my best shot at explaining. Unlike my grandma, you’ll know more about video game and internet culture already :)

      The character is Alyx from Half-Life 2. “Source Filmmaker” is an app that lets you pose and animate characters from Valve games and is frequently used for meme videos. It was likely used to pose Alyx’s face this way.

      Here is a picture of this meme that I saw before this one (I think it’s the original for the format).

      This was most a meme from a few years ago, around the time when air fryers were becoming more popular and squid game had recently released.

      The meme pokes fun at the “elitist” attitude many people with air fryers had, as they swore by using them for everything. A key trait is the smirk expression the person in the picture has.
