About Disappointed Black Guy

The "Disappointed Black Guy" meme features a two-panel reaction image of a man, Kony E. Chokoraa, whose expression shifts from excited happiness to profound disappointment or frustration. Originating from a 2013 YouTube video of him reacting to a boxing match, the meme became popular for illustrating scenarios where high expectations quickly turn into a letdown. It is commonly used to convey a sudden change in mood from joy or anticipation to sadness, anger, or despair, often in "expectation vs. reality" contexts. This versatile classic meme captures the universal feeling of dashed hopes.
