Blank Nut Button

Where it came from
A stock-photo-style image of a hand hovering over a single large red button labeled "NUT". Emerged in 2018 as an instantly meme-able "eagerly pressing the button" template.
A hand hovers over a big red button labeled "NUT" (as in "go crazy about a thing"). The caption is whatever you're about to lose your entire mind over — a favorite song, a fictional character's backstory, a topic you will not shut up about. The joke is that the button is right there and you cannot not press it.
It's a one-panel format and the entire comedy is the word on the button plus whatever you write next to it. Simple, brutal, reusable for any overreaction. The "NUT" phrasing makes the button feel like a primal urge, which is exactly how it feels when someone mentions your special interest in the wild.
Still used. A little rude, very efficient.
