“Bro relax I am literally just vibing” frog memes act as a chill response to haters. The original image for these memes comes from a WikiHow article titled “How To Find A Frog.” It shows a blue gloved hand picking up a frog. According to Know Your Meme, the phrase “just vibing” grew popular as a meme in 2019 and is similar to “vibe check” memes. The full phrase “bro relax I’m literally just vibing” can be found on Twitter dating back to 2019.Β  This caption is fitting as the frog in the picture appears indifferent to the disembodied gloved hand he’s being held by.

Variations of these “bro relax…” frog memes serve as comebacks to negativity.
