The 'I'm Batman' meme originates from the cult classic Adult Swim series 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force' in the 2002 episode titled 'Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future.' In this legendary scene, the lovable Meatwad (voiced by Dave Willis) wears a crude cardboard mask and repeatedly asserts 'I'm Batman' to a visibly irritated Master Shake (voiced by Dana Snyder). The humor lies in Meatwad's high-pitched, innocent delivery contrasted with the gritty seriousness usually associated with the Caped Crusader. This clip is a staple of internet culture, used to represent misplaced confidence, low-effort cosplay, or the feeling of being obsessed with a new persona. It is the go-to template for situations where someone is trying to be intimidating or cool but fails miserably in a hilarious way. It perfectly captures the energy of someone who has just watched a superhero movie and suddenly thinks they are the protagonist. Example captions include: 'Me after watching one Robert Pattinson interview,' 'When you buy a $5 Batman mask from the clearance aisle,' and 'Me trying to act tough after crying at a Pixar movie.'
