The 'The Legs' meme typically features characters or objects photoshopped to have absurdly long, slender legs, often walking in a confident or bizarre manner. This visual trope relies on surreal humor and the uncanny valley effect to evoke laughter and confusion. It rose to prominence through various iterations involving cartoon characters like Patrick Star or Winnie the Pooh, and later evolved into a way to parody fashion photography or fitness transformations. The meme is widely used to represent strutting into a situation with unearned confidence or to highlight a singular, ridiculous physical trait for comedic effect.
