Mr. Lovenstein is a popular webcomic series created by J.L. Westover, characterized by its bright colors, minimalist character designs, and a focus on social anxiety, failure, and dark humor. The comics often feature characters profusely sweating or hiding intense distress behind a facade of normalcy, most notably in the 'Secret Panel' format. As a meme template, these panels are widely used to depict situations where someone is trying to keep their cool while internally panicking or facing an absurdly uncomfortable reality. Its versatility in capturing human vulnerability and ironic optimism has made it a staple in internet culture for expressing modern-day stress.
