Woody is the cowboy doll voiced by Tom Hanks in Pixar's Toy Story, first released in 1995. Online, distorted versions of familiar cartoon characters became a popular meme format, and Woody's friendly image made him a frequent target for cursed edits. Clips pair warped audio with stretched or darkened stills, shared in short videos and soundboards as a shorthand for something that looks familiar but feels off. The sound remains used because that uncanny twist on nostalgia still lands instantly.
