This is antimeme.

Bhj would have the guy saying something like "I'm leaving" or "Look what I can do!"

BHJ = Characters are literally describing what they are doing or a mundane thing

Anti-meme = Effectively a normal meme which uses subversion of expectations by replacing the expected punchline with something dry.

Both are a form of dry humor, but one makes use of the meme format (anti-meme) and makes fun of or exists alongside the meme format (BHJ)

BHJ is absurdist. It looks at the image and gives description or dialogue based solely on what's in the image, with no care for what the original context is.

Anti-memes are in conversation with the original meme, but subvert expectations by changing up the punchline to something more literal. Or in the case of your meme, a reference to another joke.

BHJ for this comic

"AI is the most important undertaking this company has ever undertaken. Tell me your AI stories"

"I haven't gotten around to using it"

"I use it for emails"

"Fucking clankers stole my face and gave me a robot one. Can't even eat. Thinking about jumping out the window"

I have a serious question here, does anybody have any line on how they throw people out of windows? Like do they drug them first? Do they do it kicking and screaming, whom is throwing them out? Fsb, the mob that they subordinate?
