About the Sawing Off Your Own Branch meme template
A simple watercolor cartoon of a guy calmly sawing through the exact branch he's sitting on — the universal image of self-sabotage, except he doesn't seem to have noticed yet. It's slapstick logic in one frame: doing the thing that's about to ruin your own day.
