The popular Milton Stapler Hurricane memes are in response to Hurricane Milton making landfall in Florida late on Wednesday. This hurricane comes so shortly after Hurricane Helene that people are still recovering from the impact, including in areas where hurricane flooding was previously unimaginable, such as Asheville, NC.

Naturally, people are coping by making hurricane memes about returning Milton’s stapler.
