The 'Guy Getting Railed By A Chair' meme, also known as 'Man getting hit by a chair,' features a 3D model or stick figure being violently tackled by a furniture item. It gained traction on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit as a visual metaphor for being blindsided by life's unexpected challenges. Whether it's a surprise exam, a sudden expense, or an overwhelming workload, the visceral impact of the chair perfectly captures the feeling of being completely overwhelmed. Its popularity stems from its absurdly high energy and the universal relatability of getting 'hit' by something you never saw coming.
