The 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Old' meme is a popular variation of the 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny' trend that emerged in late 2021. Instead of focusing on horrific realizations, this format uses a series of increasingly aged images of Bob Parr to illustrate the passage of time or the feeling of waiting forever for something to happen. The sequence typically starts with a youthful Mr. Incredible and progresses through stages of middle age, senior years, and eventually into a skeleton or even dust. It is frequently used to mock slow internet speeds, long-delayed video game releases, or the agonizing wait for a text message, often paired with somber, slowed-down music to heighten the dramatic effect of growing old while waiting.
