# Is this a bird? — Meme Lab

Use when someone confidently applies the wrong category or buzzword to something they barely understand.

- What it expresses: A superficial resemblance becomes an absurdly incorrect classification.
- Example: A manager sees any chart with an upward line and asks, 'Is this growth?' using the butterfly label.
- When not to use it: A student tentatively asks an expert to identify an unfamiliar specimen; honest uncertainty is not confident misclassification.
