2016 was full of ups and downs, but on the bright side, we had the Internet to keep us on our toes. Here are the 10 best internet moments of 2016!


1. Damn, Daniel

Yes, this got old very quickly, but it was pretty amazing the first couple times you watched it. It is a classic 2016 internet moment, whether you love it or hate it.


2. Mr. Krabs Blur

There were endless Spongebob memes this year, but the Mr. Krabs one takes the cake.



3. Evil Kermit

Evil Kermit will never get old because it's hilarious and very very true.



4. Joe Biden Memes

What better way to say goodbye to our current president and vice president then to make them into a meme. Joe Biden memes will always be a classic moment of 2016.


5. Leonardo DiCaprio finally wins an Oscar

This moment almost broke the Internet. Do you know how long this man waited for this moment?! It is truly an unforgettable moment.



6. Harambe

The ape that will live in our hearts forever. Harambe was unfortunately killed this year, but the Internet made sure we would never forget him. RIP Harambe.



7. #KimExposedTaylor

Nothing was more jaw-dropping than when Kim showed the receipts of what really went down during Taylor and Kanye's conversation over his controversial music video for "Famous."



8. The Mannequin Challenge

For some reason, watching people pose completely still with "Crowd Pleaser" playing in the background was so fascinating to watch.



9. Bottle Flipping

Why was this a thing? Who knows. Why was it always entertaining? No one knows.



9. Arthur Fist

Bringing back Arthur with this hilarious meme. It was relatable and never got old.



10. Running Man Challenge

Everyone and their mother did this challenge, which is probably why it got old really quick. It is still an iconic Internet moment of 2016, even if the song "My Boo" is now ruined forever.



There you have it, the best internet moments of 2016. Yes, there were way more than 10 moments but these are the ones I found the best. Hope you enjoyed!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
