Polite Cat (He Looks Very Polite)

• This meme features a cat named Ollie, whose owner posted a photo of him with a "polite" but slightly awkward, tight-lipped expression. The unique look was actually a result of some minor Photoshop work to tuck the cat's mouth into a smile, making him look like he’s patiently waiting for something or trying to be respectful in a very uncomfortable social situation. By 2026, it is the universal visual for "forced patience" or "waiting for a reply you know is going to be bad."
