How this meme works

A strange little man in a formal coat leaps about in gleeful triumph, arms flung wide, as if he has just won something. The joke is the over-the-top smug celebration of a petty or sneaky victory.

When to use it

Use it when someone is gleefully celebrating a small win, a secret plan, or a scheme that only they know about.

Where this meme comes from

Rumpelstiltskin is the scheming little man from the fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm. This image shows a version of the character leaping about in gleeful triumph, and it spread online as a reaction image for smug celebrations of petty or sneaky wins.
