The One with Memes from 2016

If you didn’t know already, a meme is a humorous image, video, piece of text, etc. that is spread rapidly by Internet users. There were a lot of great memes from this year that seemed to take over everyone’s twitter feeds. Here are a few that hopefully make you laugh!

1.) Damn Daniel!

This meme got really old, really quick, but it was funny while it lasted. This viral video featured and kid name Daniel and his white Vans, and that is basically it. The video got so big he was on an episode of Ellen and got a lifetime supply of vans.

2.) Ken Bone

Ken Bone became an instant meme after one of the political debates this year. I am not sure if it was his sweater, his mustache, or just the fact that it was a humorous break from a very controversial election, but Ken Bone seemed to put a smile on everyone’s face during a stressful time.

3.) Blurry Mr. Krabs

This blurry picture of Mr. Krabs from an episode of Spongebob was huge hit this year. It seemed like you could caption this picture anything and it can perfectly describe your mood.

4.) Spongegar

This meme doesn’t even really need an explanation, mostly because it doesn’t really make sense. But Spongegar, aka Caveman Spongebob, seems to be able to describe you when something unexpected and confusing happens.

5.) Arthur's Fist

Who knew that a picture of an aardvark’s fist could have so many emotions. That’s right, this is Arthur’s fist. The cartoon show that a lot of us watched as kid. This meme seems to be very relatable for angry people who don’t want to express their anger so they clench their fist instead.

6.) Joe Biden

BROMANCE alert! There are so many great pictures of President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden that really show their brotherly relationship. I don’t think we will ever see another iconic duo like Obama and Biden in office.

7.) Harambe

If for some reason you didn’t know, Harmabe was a gorilla from the Cincinnati Zoo who was killed after a young boy fell into his cage. Harambe may not have been intentially harming him, but because he was dragging the child he was. The killing became very controversial, many thought that the gorilla had no right to be killed, while some believed if they tranquallized Harambe it would have made him angry. The internet seems to care a lot about Harambe though considering he became into a meme and internet users mocked his death.

8.)You vs. The Guy She Tells You Not to Worry About

In this meme there are usually two people, often celebrities or television show characters. The person on the left is “you,” and the person on the right is usually a very attractive person that you SHOULD be worried about, but she tells you not to worry.

9.) Little Drake

This year Drake revealed the cover art for his forthcoming Views From the Six, which has a little version of Drake on it. The album got a lot of attention and of course became a meme. This made it way too easy to photoshop Drake in, well just about anything.

10.) Evil Kermit

Last year everyone was using the meme of Kermit drinking tea, but this is the latest meme that seems to be well deserving of a “MEEEEEEEE.” This hysterical picture of Kermit and “Evil Kermit” is good for describing battles with your inner-self.

New memes were introduced every month in 2016. People were flipping their water bottles, clenching their fists, and naming iconic duos. Hopefully 2017 can deliver even more great memes.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
