Is That Your Fucking Fursona? is a redraw meme. Fanartists, cosplayers and/or photomanip editors parody a fancomic made by Tumblr user rotsuko for Neon Genesis Evangelion. Soon after it was posted, the fancomic spread far and wide online.
In the fancomic, Asuka Langley Sohryu is drawing her fursona when Shinji Ikari asks what she's doing. He says its "cringe." In character, Asuka tells Shinji that he's cringe. The last panel is Shinji crying in the bathroom, (Shinji's known for crying, so this too is in character.)
Many recursive fanworks put their own spin on the concept, sometimes changing the fursona to be an existing character, saying it's a "humansona" if the characters drawn aren't human, or changing the comic's outcome to be the start of a romance, with the last panel being a kiss.
Quotes from the comic are often parroted online when fans post artwork of their own fursonas or original characters. The comic is seen as anti-Cringe Culture.
