The Mike Wazowski-Sulley Face Swap meme features a digitally altered image from the 2001 Pixar film Monsters, Inc., where Mike Wazowski’s face is replaced with James P. Sullivan’s smaller, wide-set features. This edit creates a hilariously deadpan and judgmental expression that quickly became a staple of internet culture. First gaining massive popularity around 2019 on platforms like Twitter and Reddit, the image is used as the ultimate reaction for awkward silence, disappointment, or watching someone do something incredibly stupid. Its power lies in the contrast between Mike’s usually energetic personality and this version’s look of utter exhaustion and soul-crushing realization.
