The meme is humorous because it shows a person with a Tesla (an electric vehicle that doesn't require gasoline) filling up gas cans at a gas station. The irony is highlighted by the text pointing out the vehicle's license plate that says 'EWH-GAS', which implies a distaste for gasoline. The situation suggests a contradiction between the disdain for gas, as implied by the license plate, and the current need for gasoline to power a generator due to an impending storm.
