About the How Unfortunate meme template
Two Transformers, zero empathy. Grimlock's on the ground asking for help and Starscream, floating above with his arms crossed, delivers the coldest non-answer in cartoon history. It's become shorthand for watching someone struggle and just... not caring.
Use it for any moment where sympathy was expected and none showed up — a coworker dodging a favor, a friend group ignoring your crisis, customer service hanging up on you. Swap the top line for the problem and let 'How unfortunate' do the rest.
