Rhymes with Grug is a meme format on WhatiMeme.

A stocky animated caveman stands barefoot on a plain white background. He wears a dark, shaggy fur vest, has a small tuft of hair on his head, thick eyebrows, and a slight smirk. His body is angled forward in a wide, grounded stance with arms hanging loosely at his sides and a dark shadow beneath his feet. Large empty white space surrounds him, especially above and to the right.

How to write this meme

Put the complicated modern thing on top and the shortest possible “Grug” answer on the bottom. Keep the bottom line blunt, present-tense, and a little grammatically broken. If the bottom text needs explaining, it’s too long.
