Originating from the 2011 detective thriller video game L.A. Noire, the 'Press X To Doubt' meme features the protagonist, Detective Cole Phelps, wearing a face of intense skepticism. During interrogations, players could choose the 'Doubt' option, mapped to the X button on the Xbox controller, to call out a suspect's lie when they lacked concrete evidence. The meme gained massive traction on Tumblr and 4chan in late 2013 as a versatile reaction image used to mock clearly false statements, suspicious claims, or internet hyperbole. Its enduring popularity stems from the hilariously exaggerated facial expressions captured via the game's then-revolutionary MotionScan technology, making it the internet's gold standard for conveying disbelief.
