AboutWhat does the meme depict?
The "Daily Struggle" meme features an exploitable comic template with a character facing a tough choice between two red buttons, each labeled with contradictory statements. The comic presents the character sweating and visibly stressed as they contemplate which button to press.
OriginWho did it first?
The meme originated from a post on Tumblr by animator Jake Clark on October 25th, 2014. In the original comic, the character Hank Nova, inspired by Timesplitters 2 and the Sweating Towel Guy illustration, appears distressed while deciding between buttons labeled 'BE A DICK' and 'DON'T BE A DICK'. Clark outlined that his inspiration came from these sources in a discussion. The comic quickly became popular, sparking a wide range of variations featuring different conflicting choices.[1]
