About

Is the Cure to Male Loneliness Thugging That Shit Out? refers to an altered version of the Is the Cure to Male Loneliness Out on the Pickleball Court? meme (which originally exploited a New York Times opinion piece written my Michelle Cottle), replacing the latter half of the phrasal template with the slang phrase "thugging that shit out" and the image macro with actor Michael Cera staring at the meme's viewer. Originally posted to Instagram in late 2023, the variation gained its own memetic traction continuing into the year as others replaced the subject image.

Origin

On August 25th, 2023, Instagram[1] user @toucherofcancer posted a re-edited version of the "Is the Cure to Male Loneliness Out on the Pickleball Court?" meme that inserted an image of Michael Cera (originally shot by photographer Emily Shur[2] in 2008) and recaptioned the text with the phrase "thugging that shit out" (which means "To push through an obstacle. To remain strong during a hard time" according to Urban Dictionary [3]). Over the course of two weeks, the post gained roughly 3,500 likes (shown below).
