Obituary

The Rock's Eyebrow was a single raised eyebrow from Dwayne Johnson — usually in a video or interview, usually right before something impressive — that became the internet's favorite unit of skepticism. It was the look of a man who has seen your plan and is already bored by it. 'Me watching someone explain why this is a good idea' was its most reliable caption. The eyebrow appeared in countless edits, usually followed by the Rock doing something impossibly physical. It died in 2019, not because the eyebrow stopped raising, but because it had raised so many times it lost its element of surprise. It is still raised, somewhere, at a gym.
