What is bitch eating crackers?

The phrase "bitch eating crackers" (or BEC) is internet slang used to describe a specific type of irrational and disproportionate annoyance towards someone, often a partner or family member. It refers to the feeling of being irritated by someone even when they are doing something completely innocuous, like simply eating crackers.

The humor and relatability of the meme stem from the fact that it captures the feeling of being annoyed by someone for reasons that are difficult to articulate or justify. It acknowledges the irrationality of the emotion and the absurdity of feeling angry at someone for a harmless behavior. It often signals a deeper, underlying problem within the relationship or a general sense of irritability projected onto the other person.
