Bruh

Bruh

2003

"Bruh" is a slang term derived from "brother" that became one of the internet's most versatile reaction expressions. Rooted in African American Vernacular English dating back to the 19th century, it exploded online in 2014 when a Vine video dubbed a deadpan "bruh" over footage of a basketball player collapsing in court. The word now functions as a one-syllable catch-all for disbelief, frustration, humor, and everything in between.

Math Lady / Confused Math

2013

Math Lady, also called Confused Math Lady, is a reaction image and GIF featuring Brazilian actress Renata Sorrah as the villain Nazaré Tedesco from the 2004 telenovela *Senhora do Destino*. The image shows Sorrah with an intensely confused expression, often overlaid with floating mathematical equations, and is used to express bewilderment or overthinking. First used as a reaction GIF in 2013, it exploded internationally in 2016 after someone added math formulas to the screenshot, turning it into one of the most recognizable confusion memes on the internet.

Cat on Roomba

Cat on Roomba

2008

Cat on Roomba is a viral video meme featuring cats sitting or riding on Roomba robotic vacuum cleaners as they move around a room. The format took off in late 2008 when a YouTube video titled "Roomba Driver" showed a cat perched on a moving Roomba, and it became one of the defining cute animal video trends of the late 2000s internet[1]. The meme belongs to the broader "Cats Riding on X" genre, which expanded to include cats riding tortoises, dogs, and other unlikely vehicles.

Ugandan Knuckles

Ugandan Knuckles

2013

Ugandan Knuckles is a VRChat meme built around a distorted 3D model of Knuckles the Echidna from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. Players swarmed virtual lobbies using the avatar while repeating "Do you know de wey?" in a mock African accent, creating one of the most viral and controversial gaming memes of early 2018. The meme sparked a major debate about racial stereotyping in online spaces and drew comparisons to Pepe the Frog's trajectory from harmless joke to co-opted symbol.

Pepe the Frog

Pepe the Frog

2005

Pepe the Frog is a cartoon frog character created by artist Matt Furie for his 2005 comic *Boy's Club*, best known for his catchphrase "feels good man." After 4chan users turned Pepe into one of the internet's most versatile reaction images in 2008, the character exploded into mainstream culture before being co-opted by alt-right groups during the 2016 U.S. presidential election, leading the Anti-Defamation League to add him to its hate symbol database. Pepe's story is one of the most complex in meme history: an innocent stoner frog that became a political flashpoint, a legal battleground, and a global protest symbol.

Surprised Pikachu
#006classic

Surprised Pikachu

2018

Surprised Pikachu is a reaction image pulled from a 1997 episode of the Pokémon anime, showing Pikachu with wide eyes and an open mouth in a look of shock. First used as a meme on Tumblr in September 2018 by user popokko (Angela), it became the most-used meme of that year by pairing the image with scenarios where someone is "surprised" by a completely predictable outcome. A WIRED investigation into its viral trajectory raised questions about whether its November 2018 popularity spike was connected to the Detective Pikachu film marketing, though no definitive link was established.

Change My Mind
#007classic

Change My Mind

2018

"Change My Mind" is an exploitable image macro meme featuring conservative commentator Steven Crowder sitting behind a folding table with a sign inviting passersby to debate him. The original photo was taken at Texas Christian University on February 16, 2018, with the sign reading "Male Privilege is a Myth / Change My Mind"[4]. Within days, internet users began replacing the sign text with humorous, absurd, or satirical statements, turning a political debate segment into one of the most versatile opinion-sharing templates online[1].

Doge
#008classic

Doge

2005

Doge is an internet meme built around photos of a Shiba Inu named Kabosu, overlaid with colorful Comic Sans captions in deliberately broken English. The format took off in 2013 after years of quiet spread across Tumblr and Reddit, earning Know Your Meme's "top meme" of the year[3]. Kabosu's sideways glance launched a cryptocurrency worth billions, inspired an NFT sale of over $4 million, and gave its name to a U.S. government department, making it one of the most consequential memes in internet history.
