The 'What Year Is It?' meme features a disheveled Robin Williams as Alan Parrish from the 1995 film Jumanji, specifically the scene where he emerges from the jungle after 26 years. First gaining traction on sites like Reddit and 4chan in the early 2010s, the image captures a moment of pure, panicked disorientation. It is most commonly used to react to long naps, the return of long-forgotten fashion trends, or any situation where the passage of time feels confusing. The meme remains a staple of internet culture, perfectly embodying the collective shock felt when the past and present collide unexpectedly.
