You know that feeling when you're trying to be sad but your face just refuses to cooperate? That's the Edward Norton emotional sad meme in a nutshell. It captures that awkward moment when you're supposed to look devastated but end up looking like you're constipated instead.
The template usually features Edward Norton's character from Fight Club or American History X, where his face is trying to convey deep emotional pain but comes off as hilariously forced. It's perfect for those situations where you're pretending to be upset about something you secretly don't care about at all.
Just slap this on any text about fake sadness or dramatic overreactions to minor inconveniences. The contrast between the serious expression and the trivial subject matter is what makes it work every time.
