The Woman Yelling at a Cat meme is a legendary mashup that first went viral in 2019. It combines a 2011 screenshot of Taylor Armstrong from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills during a heated emotional breakdown with a 2018 photo of a white cat named Smudge looking confused behind a plate of salad. The two unrelated images were paired by a Twitter user, creating the perfect visual representation of an over-the-top reaction meeting complete, confused indifference. It quickly became a global sensation, used to mock people taking minor issues too seriously while the 'innocent' party looks on in bewilderment.
