About this meme
Template Name: The Miller's Inequality (Getting Paid)
Origin: This four-panel template is the complete sequence from the 2013 film We're the Millers. It features the main cast—Jason Sudeikis, Jennifer Aniston, Emma Roberts, and Will Poulter—realizing the massive disparity in their promised payments for a drug smuggling operation. The meme took off as a way to show how a "good deal" or "standard situation" gets progressively worse as it reaches the bottom of the hierarchy.
Key Vibes: Hierarchy of unfairness, "the short end of the stick," relative suffering, and the innocent victim.
