5 Ridiculously Addicting Memes

Thanks to this video, I can finally brush the dust off this article. It has been sitting in my drafts collecting dust. Plus, all my info are mostly typed out wtf.



There were a lot of definition for meme but for now, I just want to touch on Internet meme. Make my life a bit easier. Anyway, here's a very simple definition of meme: An image, video, etc. that is passed electronically from one Internet user to another. OK, so that's not that clear. Here's what I think it should be: Ideas and concept that spread via Internet.

That's that. Now onto my top picks for favourite memes:

5 - I can has cheezburger?



The power of bad grammar or typo has earn its place in history. Err, I think so. Anyway, combine this with a cat and you will get LolCats. Initially, I really don't know what's so funny about it but it has its own charm.

You have this all thanks to a dude name Eric Nakagawa. With 1.5 million hits a day, he is LOL'ing for himself. It must be the mix heritage wtf.

Anyway thanks to that, you will get a lot more cats with their cat-astrophic grammar wtf wtf. Must be the lolcats effect.

4 - Horrifying House guest



I like horror so this meme is a no brainer. Normally, memes are suppose to make you laugh if not insulted. But take a look at this one and you know you'll definitely feel uneasy after reading the captions. BOO wtf.

It first came about as a great pencil sketch. Then it got spread around with people adding text to the image an cropping it. And then the popularity increased. If you don't know this, it is still alright. The sketch first appeared this year on June 28.

This is one of my favourite.



Oh well, that's it. Just make sure you are a good runner. The light switch seems awfully far from you.

3 - Awesome smiley



I am ashamed to say that I've never actually seen this before until I saw Wei Lian using this as her Firefox background. This smiley gain popularity in forums. The Awesome Face was actually part of a few emoticons designed for the Pokemon-related web forum Pokemopolis. To find out more about it, just head over here.

The reason for using this smiley is very simple. It is a sign of approval. Saw a delicously cooked bacon topped with whatnot from expensive market? Awesome smiley. Beat someone in an Internet comment debate? Awesome smiley. Think my blog is cool? Awesome smiley. wtf

2 - Trollface



One of the most epic memes is the Trollface. In the face of disaster or absurd, he is there. Plus, with a face like that, anyone will want to punch the person. As you know, the Trollface is very successful as it has one of its own comic site.



The origin of this meme is sort of the ultimate trolling. A MSPaint comic made by deviantArt user Whynne about the pointless nature of trolling was uploaded on September 19th, 2008. That means he was AGAINST trolling. He wanted to base the face on a character called Rape Rodent. Little did he know that this comic he drew created a trollface Internet phenomenon!

The original comic:


The irony works against Whynne. But I thank him wtf.

1 - Nyan Cat



Oh yeah, I was addicted to this. Like seriously. Imagine listening to it for almost an hour. The same repetitive music. The same cat. The same space. After that, all I could say was nyan nyan nyan nyan the whole day wtf.

We have this wonderful phenomenon thanks to a dude who called himself prguitarman. Before Nyan Cat, he named it Pop Tart Cat. The evolution of its name is thanks to a YouTuber, saraj00n, who uses a Vocaloid's song called Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya. I kid you not. Such songs were ACTUALLY composed (by a Japanese artist named Daniwell-P)wtf.

Despite all the craziness, when Pop Tart Cat and Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya combined, it became a land filled with gold. Right now, you can even go to an official site for you to test how long you can stand it: http://nyan.cat/ . It is no joke that we need a cat that shits rainbow as the ambassador for world peace. Seriously wtf.

Just click here for one more Trollface before I end my article.

Calv out






















































If you actually did that you've been Rick Roll'd!

Bonus

The pop song "Never gonna give you up" was sung by Rick Astly. How this happen is quite simple. In the beginning, it was known as Duckroll. I seriously have no idea how did that happened. That's when you will see a duck in wheels.

After awhile, it evolved to this thanks to the wonders of Youtube. The idea here is to trick a user (you if you did click, HAHAHA) to click on a fake link by providing them fake information such as "THE NEW PREVIEW OF AVENGERS 2012" or something like that wtf.

For an in depth read, like seriously a research was actually done about memes, here you go.
