Honey Bun Baby features the incredibly expressive face of Ashton Howell, a toddler from Alabama whose photos went viral in 2016 after his uncle, Steven Howell, shared them on Twitter. The most famous image shows Ashton looking into the camera with a hilarious mixture of skepticism, judgement, and sass, earning him the nickname 'Honey Bun Baby' due to his sweet yet sassy demeanor. It quickly became a staple reaction meme used to represent someone who is onto a lie, judging a situation, or simply not amused by someone's antics. The meme remains a favorite across Twitter and Instagram for its relatability and Ashton's pitch-perfect facial expression that speaks louder than words.
