What is the C'mon Do Something Meme?
Why won't this thing just do something? A stick figure hunches over empty ground, poking at nothing with a stick in a drawing so crude it somehow makes the frustration funnier. The meme stands in for every moment you've stared at something — a bank account, a loading bar, a dating app — willing it to show any sign of life.

About the C'mon Do Something Meme
A crudely drawn stick figure hunches over empty ground, poking at nothing with a stick. The posture is expectant, deeply unimpressed. Below the image: "c'mon do something." The drawing's simplicity is the whole joke — there's nothing here except raw impatience and an object that refuses to cooperate. The meme distills the experience of waiting for something to work, respond, or show any sign of life whatsoever.
A simple single-panel stick figure drawing that went viral around 2017. It shows a stick figure poking at the empty ground with a stick, accompanied by the caption "c'mon do something." The crude art style only adds to the humor — it strips the joke down to its most elemental form: someone waiting for literally anything to happen. For another "waiting for results" format, see Waiting Skeleton or Squidward Window.
How to Make a C'mon Do Something Meme
- The C'mon Do Something template is loaded with 2 text fields: one for the person poking and one for the thing being poked
- Fill in who's doing the poking (usually "me") and what disappointing thing they're waiting on
- Each text box is pre-positioned: the poker label sits in the upper-left, and the object label sits on the lower half near the ground
- Plain black text on the white background matches the crude drawing style. Keep labels short since the stick figure is doing all the storytelling
- Poke that Download button for a PNG, or Share your disappointment with someone who also refuses to do anything
