The 'Black Guy on the Phone' meme, often featuring a photo of Martin Baker or similar individuals using a cell phone with a concerned expression, gained massive popularity as a reaction image for reporting minor or humorous inconveniences. Originally surfacing from news coverage during a 2014 protest, the image evolved into a universal symbol for 'snitching' or jokingly calling the authorities on harmless behavior. It is frequently used to express mock outrage or to signal that someone has said something out of pocket in a group chat, making it one of the most relatable templates for digital intervention and suspicious reactions.
