The Jovial Merryment meme, often referred to as the Orange Horse, features a striking image of a gaunt, bright orange horse with a wide-eyed, seemingly blissful expression. This meme thrives on surreal and absurdist humor, typically pairing the horse's unusual and slightly unsettling appearance with captions about extreme happiness, contentment, or 'jovial' states. It gained popularity in online communities that enjoy ironic or 'weirdcore' aesthetics, where the contrast between the horse's physical state and its perceived emotional joy creates a unique comedic tension. It is frequently used to represent a state of manic positivity or being 'blessed' in a way that feels slightly off-kilter.
