The 'Welcome To The Family, Son' meme originates from the 2017 survival horror game Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. In the scene, the protagonist Ethan Winters is blindsided by a massive punch from the antagonist Jack Baker, who delivers the iconic line just before the screen goes black. The meme gained popularity for its aggressive POV perspective, making viewers feel like they are the ones being hit. It is frequently used to represent sudden setbacks, brutal introductions to new communities, or the overwhelming feeling of being hit by a hard reality. Its versatility as a 'Screen Punching' template has made it a go-to for internet users looking to depict a physical manifestation of a metaphorical blow.
