This meme is a humorous example of a "deadpan" joke, where the punchline is a stark and unexpected contrast to the setup. The text reads: "In 1973, a woman in the UK died after being struck by lightning. The inquest concluded the cause of death was 'misadventure'." The joke is that the cause of death was described in a completely mundane and bureaucratic way, implying that the person's death was simply an unfortunate accident, rather than a dramatic or exciting event.
