The 'Smokin' Jay Cutler' meme originated around 2012 on a Tumblr blog dedicated to Photoshopping cigarettes into press photos of then-Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler. The meme perfectly encapsulated Cutler's perceived lack of enthusiasm and 'don't care' attitude on and off the field, turning his slouched body language and squinted eyes into a symbol of ultimate apathy. It quickly spread across sports forums and social media as a shorthand for being completely unbothered by criticism, logic, or high-stakes situations. Today, it remains a staple in NFL internet culture, used whenever someone wants to project a vibe of nonchalant dismissal or cool, chain-smoking indifference toward life's problems.
