It perfectly captures relatable scenarios where someone is physically vibrating with joy or intense focus. This visual shorthand for 'hype' is a staple in reaction culture across social media. Example caption ideas include: 'Me when the waiter finally brings the pizza to the table,' 'Getting ready to clock out on a Friday,' and 'When your jam comes on in the car.'
