Notes:

Photos from the "Hood Cryptids" or "Forgive Me Mother" TikTok trend, where people share slideshows showing a baby photo alongside text that reads, "When I grow up I want to be a police officer to catch bad guys," followed by an edited image of a "Hood Cryptid." The meme takes inspiration from creepypasta edits that exaggerate a person's features to give them an off-putting appearance. The meme, which grew popular in December 2024, is also shared under the names "Withered YNs," "Five Nights at YNs," and "Hood Creatures."
