The 'Family Feud Cowboy Purses' meme originates from a 2014 episode of the long-running game show Family Feud, hosted by the iconic Steve Harvey. In this specific round, Harvey asks a contestant named Obadiah—a man dressed in traditional cowboy attire—to name something a man might have in his pocket. Without hesitation, Obadiah confidently responds with 'A purse,' triggering a classic, prolonged silent reaction from Steve Harvey. The juxtaposition of Obadiah's rugged 'cowboy' persona with such an unexpected answer created comedic gold that quickly went viral. This clip is frequently used as a reaction meme to represent total confusion, nonsensical logic, or moments where someone says something so confidently wrong that it stops the conversation entirely. It captures the essence of the 'I have no words' feeling in digital discourse. Example captions include: 'When you try to act tough but your true self slips out,' 'Me trying to contribute to a conversation I know nothing about,' and 'That one friend who always misses the point.'
