The response goes one step beyond wishing the meeting had been an email.

- This could have been no meeting
Also called Unimpressed Ted · Disapproving Ted
A teddy bear with no enthusiasm left for the explanation. Give the frown a dry response or a small disappointment.
The raised inner eyebrows and downturned mouth read as skeptical, disappointed, or quietly fed up. A childish-looking bear delivering an adult complaint is enough of a contrast to carry the joke.
Keep the response flat. A short, unimpressed observation fits the expression better than a loud celebration or a long rant.
Ted is the living teddy bear voiced by Seth MacFarlane. The 2012 comedy follows John Bennett, played by Mark Wahlberg, whose childhood wish brought the bear to life. The adult John and Ted remain inseparable. [1]
Use the lower body for the caption, leaving the eyebrows and mouth visible. One sentence gives the bear a reason to look unimpressed.
A mismatch between a promise and the result works well: a supposed shortcut that takes longer, or a tiny reward presented as a major event.
