The My Body is a Machine meme evolved from early internet motivational posters into a surreal and ironic shitposting format. It typically features a hyper-masculine figure or a diagram, accompanied by text claiming the body is a machine that converts a mundane input, like caffeine or fast food, into a specific output, like work or more cravings. The trend gained massive popularity on platforms like Twitter and Reddit, where users subverted the hustle culture mentality to celebrate ridiculous or hyper-specific daily habits.
