But That's None Of My Business (Neutral) Meme Template
The 'But That's None Of My Business (Neutral)' variant of the Kermit the Frog meme presents the frog sipping tea with a deliberately blank, non-judgmental expression - Used when someone wants to make a pointed observation while technically maintaining plausible deniability.

It is used for observations that are both accurate and slightly petty.

Where the But That's None Of My Business (Neutral) meme comes from
The original 'But That's None of My Business' meme features Kermit the Frog, the Muppet character created by Jim Henson, in a promotional image sipping Lipton tea, which went viral on Twitter and Tumblr in 2014. The format was used to make a catty observation and then immediately disclaim responsibility for having made it. The neutral expression variant emerged as a subtle refinement for situations requiring an even more studied performance of innocence.
How to caption the But That's None Of My Business (Neutral) meme
State an observation that is clearly directed at a specific person or situation and then follow it with 'but that's none of my business' in the most neutral possible tone, accompanied by the deliberately blank-faced Kermit sipping tea.

Best uses for the But That's None Of My Business (Neutral) template
Use the But That's None Of My Business (Neutral) template when the joke fits a situation format and the image can explain the feeling before the reader finishes the caption. It is strongest for relatable everyday moments, before-and-after jokes, and social observations.
This blank is 664 x 516 px and is a still image, so place the most important words where they stay readable after a feed crop. The wide frame works best when the caption stays centered so timeline crops do not cut off the joke.
The sample captions are more detailed, so trim aggressively before posting on small screens. 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 |
|---|---|
| Interesting how the office printer only breaks when it's your turn to run reports, but that's none of my business | This works because it gives the reader a specific situation instead of a vague label. |
| Funny how the 'we're all out of budget' meeting was held in a brand new conference room, but that's none of my business | This pattern keeps the setup concrete, which helps the template carry the reaction. |
| Love how everyone's a gym expert in January, but that's none of my business | 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 But That's None Of My Business (Neutral) 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.
