* Coincidence? I think NOT! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Dash's teacher filmed his classroom to prove Dash had been putting thumbtacks on his seat. The only movement Dash makes[[SuperSpeed (that's caught on film)]] is a minor head movement.

This became a common line for any matter of conspiracy theories or InsaneTrollLogic.[[/labelnote]]

* In mid to late 2021 and early 2022, several memes circling around a still image of Mr. Incredible similing and its variations, especially a realistic version of the character from October 2020, have been used in different ways:
** People Who Know/People Who Don't Know.[[labelnote:Explanation]]The image of Mr. Incredible and a darker, low quality version of the realistic edit were used to convey two options, outcomes or reactions, one positive and one negative. The normal image is often used to represent innocent reactions to {{Double Entendre}}s or ambiguous situations ("those who don't know") and the darker version to people who understood it ("those who know").[[/labelnote]]
** Mr. Incredible becoming uncanny.[[labelnote:Explanation]]The previous images, plus other edits, were put together in compilations on [=YouTube=] and [=TikTok=] in which Mr. Incredible gets progressively more disturbed and eerie, with each image being compared to increasingly worse and creepier situations and accompanied by disturbing musics.[[/labelnote]]
*** Mr. Incredible becoming canny.[[labelnote:Explanation]]In response to the uncanny videos, other versions used edits of Mr. Incredible progressively getting happier and cooler instead to represent desired and fortunate situations.[[/labelnote]]

*** Mr. Incredible Becoming Canny/Angry/(other variants)[[labelnote:Explanation]]More recently, there have been further variants of the offshoot, such as a a positive, polar opposite (known as "Ascended" or "Canny") where things get increasingly better, alongside stages featuring Bob wearing sunglasses, smiling to the point he pulls an ecstatic SlasherSmile (while being juxtaposed to Mick Gordon's ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' score) and apparently ascending to godhood; and one (known as "Angry") where things become infuriating, with different screenshots of Bob getting angered from the movies.[[/labelnote]]

*** Mr. Incredible Becoming Ascended[[labelnote:Explanation]]The LighterAndSofter counterpart to Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny, it involves a similar premise but it features Mr. Incredible steadily becoming happier with each level.

** Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny[[labelnote:Explanation]]An escalating offshoot of the above with 10 stages of "uncanniness" (normal Bob is stage 1, the UncannyValley render from the original without the photocopy is stage 2, the render with the photocopy is stage 3 and it goes on and on until it reaches a skull partially replacing Bob's face as stage 9.
