I don't think jesse-wtf is a very good emoji, because maybe the facial expression is there but it's small and dark, and looks like a guy making a slightly-scrunched-but-essentially-neutral facial expression. A WTF emoji should have a big extravagant expression

    Dude, it's a scene from a 2019 movie and the meme wasn't a thing until 2020:

    On October 11th, 2019, crime thriller El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie premiered[2] (scene shown below, right). In a flashback scene, Walter and Jesse are dining together at a restaurant, discussing food, their plans and lives.

    On March 13th, 2020, iFunny[3] user CosmicRewind posted a Based on What? meme based on the latter scene. In the multi-panel meme, Jesse attempts to explain what "based" means to Walter, with him not understanding it and asking Jesse to explain himself (shown below).

    Lol, that is not an 2000's-era advice animal meme. It's as recent as covid ffs.

      I assume they were talking about the Jackie Chan meme.

        Oh. Yeah, rereading it, I guess I'm not sure which they're talking about for sure. It still seems like they meant the Jesse-Wtf one, given the comment they were responding to, and also since I don't think that Jackie Chan image was ever really a meme, let alone popular. But I could be wrong. TrashcanOfIdeology, If you mean the Jackie Chan meme is 2000's era advice animal, then my mistake, it could well be.

          No worries, I was talking about the jackie chan meme being old and long irrelevant except to those of us who were terminally online in the 2000s, but I can see how you could've assumed otherwise from the way I wrote.
