Title: Drake: Trying not to laugh
Context: This scene comes from a 2022 interview between the rapper Drake and the interviewer Nardwuar. Nardwuar is famous for knowing very specific and sometimes surprising facts about the people he interviews. Drake often reacts with shock, laughter, or disbelief to the things Nardwuar reveals. In this particular moment, Drake starts laughing loudly at something Nardwuar says, but then he quickly tries to stop himself and calm down, putting on a more serious face. This sudden change from laughing uncontrollably to trying to be serious is what makes the clip funny and a popular meme. People use it to show when they are trying really hard not to laugh in a situation where they shouldn't be, or when something is so funny or awkward that they have to compose themselves.
How to use it: Use this template to show you're trying hard not to laugh or keep a straight face when something is funny or awkward, transitioning from laughter to composure.
Examples:
- When the new guy has a joke that HR just has to hear in person.
- cuando le estoy contando a mi mamá las anécdotas con mis compas y sin querer le cuento los sitios peligrosos en los que hemos estado
- POV: having a conversation about leaving my full time nursing job to concentrate on my TT content full time
- when I tell my mom a funny story and it turns into a lecture
