In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Unimpressed Astronaut” is a rare card of the Memes World series 71, number 21288 of the collection, and the 210th best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Unimpressed Astronaut” meme mean?
This format expresses condescending disdain towards complaints deemed minor. The image acts as a visual counter-argument: if someone complains about traffic or hard work, the implicit reply is that these struggles are insignificant compared to landing on the Moon. It is a sarcastic way to end an argument by invoking an absurd scale of gravity.
Where does the “Unimpressed Astronaut” meme come from?
The exact origin of this image remains obscure and unverified by consulted sources. No precise creation date is confirmed, although 2011 is sometimes cited without tangible proof. A Reddit post from June 5, 2011, mentions a similar image featuring Charlie Sheen, which does not directly validate this series. The first known upload to Know Your Meme occurred on September 6, 2012, but this only indicates late popularization, not the initial act of creation. The procedure resembles the expression 'That’s cute', used to belittle pretension.
How to use the “Unimpressed Astronaut” meme
- Use this card to respond to a colleague complaining about a long meeting, highlighting that their boredom is minor.
