About
What the Hell Is This? is an object labeling exploitable meme taken from a Family Guy still in which Noah from the Bible story of Noah's Ark asks an elephant and a penguin "What the Hell Is This?" in reference to a hybrid elephant/penguin child. In the object labeling exploitables, the elephant and the penguin are labeled two different things, while the hybrid child is labeled something representative of a mix between the two.
Origin
The image comes from the Season 4, episode 25 Family Guy episode "You May Now Kiss the… Uh… Guy Who Receives," which aired April 30th, 2006.[1]
