Dapper Dog at Tea Party

Alas poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy

A solemn-looking dachshund sits at a tea table wearing a shirt collar and striped tie, while a crying man appears in the corner. A red arrow points to a smaller inset showing the same dog dressed in an even more elaborate outfit, making the scene absurdly formal and overly emotional. It is used as a reaction to mock dramatic sadness, awkward seriousness, or dressing up for an ordinary occasion.
