The close-up image shows his elongated snout, prominent eyestalks, and wide-open mouth against a green natural background, expressing exaggerated offense. Despite being one of the most polarizing characters in Star Wars history, Jar Jar's over-the-top reactions translate perfectly into meme format. The image macro emerged in the early 2010s for calling out petty slights with the same theatrical indignation Jar Jar brings to everything. For more Star Wars reaction formats, see Admiral Ackbar It's A Trap (warnings) and Palpatine Do It (encouragement).","format":"classic","howToMake":["Top text describes the mild offense, the petty slight, or the thing someone said that didn't need to be said","\"HOW WUDE!\" goes on the bottom.
