These memes are generally ironic, born from the copypasta sensation “This Pic Goes So Hard (feel Free To Screenshot)” family of content, which alludes to jokes about people or animals being “extreme” and “cool,” and most noteworthy, “tuff” (slang for tough, macho or gritty) when they aren’t at all. Along with expressing ironic tuff-ness, The Homer Uchiha memes are also used to communicate a feeling of joy over doing something mischievous, controversial, or downright evil.
