Obamium is a surreal internet meme centered around a 3D pyramid or prism featuring the face of former U.S. President Barack Obama. It emerged in mid-2019, primarily within the ironic and surreal meme communities like r/okbuddyretard on Reddit. The joke often frames the object as a newly discovered chemical element or a powerful artifact of cosmic significance, frequently paired with the 'Finally' format where a scientist holds a test tube containing the breakthrough discovery. Its popularity stems from its sheer absurdity and the low-resolution 3D aesthetic characteristic of early 2000s computer graphics, making it a staple of post-ironic internet humor used to mock scientific tropes and political worship alike.
