Following a fly landing on Vice President Mike Pence during the VP presidential debate, SNL wrote a skit involving movie star Jim Carrey. The fly remained on Pence’s head for several minutes sparking jokes and memes across social media. This image is Jim Carrey portraying Democratic nominee Joe Biden as the fly on Pence’s head.
The X factor is the story the image and caption tell together. In this caption by the New York Times, it says that it is a skit for the show S.N.L. but it can easily be paired with a caption with malicious intent. It can be paired with a caption on how Biden buzzes around Pence, for example.
This is the original image with context in the form of a caption.
