Leonardo Dicaprio Cheers

Where it came from
A frame of Leonardo DiCaprio raising a glass from The Great Gatsby (2013). The shot of him toasting the camera became a meme as the "acknowledging a mutual vibe" reaction.
Leo raises a champagne glass and smirks at the camera like he's silently toasting whoever's looking. The caption is whatever small, shared, usually slightly inappropriate thing you're acknowledging between you and the viewer. "To everyone who pretended to read the attachment." "To my fellow people who kept the tab open for a month without opening it."
It's the "I see you, fellow sinner" meme. The toast is a perfect gesture for "we both know what we did and we're going to keep doing it". Smug enough to feel like a conspiracy, classy enough to feel like a private joke.
Still in use. The Great Gatsby screenshot has aged well.
