If you're anything like me, you watch the Olympics to stay updated on the different competitions -- swimming, gymnastics, diving -- but you really pay attention to the competitors and their quirky habits, and even more to the memes that surface afterwards. Michael Phelps made a hysterical but terrifying face before his 200-meter butterfly semi-finals after some pre-race shenanigans with his rival, Chad Le Clos. Naturally, the internet loved it and created the #PhelpsFace hashtag that has taken the world by storm. Here are 15 of the most relatable memes using the #PhelpsFace:

1. When Frank Ocean still hasn't come out with a new album.

2. When they ask you to insert your chip after you already swiped your card.

3. When 23 gold metals, three silver metals, and three bronze metals ain't enough.

4. When you almost caught that rare Pokémon but your phone dies.

5. When they don't have your size in that one pair of shoes you wanted.

6. When your dentist tells you to floss more.

7. When they tell you guac is an extra $1.

8. When all your friends glowed up but you stayed the same.

9. When your mom says no phones at dinner but you're just trying to catch Pikáchu across the table.

10. When people ask you why you're single.

11. When your hot friend complains about being ugly.

12. When you're the only one of your friends who's on a diet and they want to go out to eat.

13. When everyone is in a serious relationship and you're over here like:

14. When you know the #PhelpsFace memes are going to take over all your social media.

15. When Michael Phelps reads this article.
