And Then He Clicked Post

Published October 8, 2026

And Then He Clicked Post is a reaction image meme using panels from Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days, first posted on iFunny in June 2025 by user BateMaster69. A second variant redrawing a One Piece dap-up scene pushed it onto TikTok and Reddit by August 2025, where it became a standard comment-section callout for cringe posts.

Overview

The format pairs the caption "And then he clicked post" with a picture of two shocked figures reacting to news. The original macro uses a Jeff Kinney drawing of Greg Heffley urgently telling Rowley Jefferson something while Rowley kneels on the floor, both scared out of their minds1. A second popular version shows the same two characters mid dap-up, redrawn from a One Piece episode 1121 frame where Monkey D. Garp fights Admiral Kuzan6.

People drop it under TikTok videos, Instagram Reels, and X replies to call out a cringe post, framing the pre-post moment as a horror beat worth being shocked about7. The humor sits in the contrast between the stakes shown on-screen and the dumb tweet below, which is what let versions like TikToker @dlineslzcms's July 2025 upload clear 45,000 views as pure comment-section fuel3.

On June 29th, 2025, iFunny user BateMaster69 uploaded the earliest known version of the image macro, placing the caption "And then he clicked post" over a Dog Days panel of Greg and Rowley1. The post itself only picked up six smiles over the following year, but the format escaped iFunny and spread as a reaction image.

The dapping variant appeared later as a fan redraw. The underlying frame comes from One Piece episode 1121, from the fight between Garp and Kuzan6. The artist who redrew Garp and Kuzan as Greg and Rowley dapping up is unconfirmed, and the account that first posted the redraw was not its author7.

How It Spread

On July 10th, 2025, user wqewqewqewq reuploaded the Wimpy Kid version to Tenor as a shareable GIF asset2. Five days later, TikToker @dlineslzcms posted the macro to the platform, where it pulled over 45,000 views3.

The dap-up variant surfaced on TikTok by August 2nd, 2025, when @n.u.k.3 posted the earliest known copy and racked up more than 26,000 views, though they were not the artist behind the redraw4. Four days later, a higher-resolution copy hit the r/LodedDiper subreddit, where it picked up over 90 upvotes5.

The format kept rolling into late 2025 and early 2026. On December 9th, 2025, @stuartmacherglazer filmed themselves flipping to the exact Dog Days page the meme comes from and cleared one million views8. On January 1st, 2026, @defnotcat_19752 included it in a Diary of a Wimpy Kid meme compilation that passed two million views within six months9.
