This blank is 949 x 1395 px and is a still image, so place the most important words where they stay readable after a feed crop. The tall frame gives you room for a short setup near the top and a payoff below the main subject.
The sample captions leave room for a setup and a punchline without turning into a paragraph. Before exporting, read the caption once without looking at the image; if it still needs a long explanation, switch to a simpler setup or a more obvious related template.
Caption patterns to try
| Pattern | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Dwight: my project deadline / Angela: me with zero progress made | This works because it gives the reader a specific situation instead of a vague label. |
| Dwight: the spreadsheet formula that controls payroll / Angela: the entire finance team | This pattern keeps the setup concrete, which helps the template carry the reaction. |
| Dwight: my code running in production untested / Angela: me hovering over the rollback button | This is a useful direction when you want the punchline to feel personal or self-aware. |
Common mistakes with this blank
- Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Angela scared Dwight image do part of the work.
- Placing text over the most expressive part of the image, especially faces, gestures, signs, or the main action.
- Using three different ideas in one meme. This template works better when it points at one clear situation.
- Exporting before checking the meme at phone size. If the smallest words blur together, shorten the caption first.
