Crying Jordan
#001classic

Crying Jordan

2015

Crying Jordan is a photoshop meme built from a cutout image of Michael Jordan's tearful face during his 2009 Basketball Hall of Fame induction speech. Starting as a niche sports forum joke around 2012, it exploded into one of the internet's most recognizable memes by 2015-2016, used primarily to mock defeated athletes and teams. The meme became so widespread that Jordan himself acknowledged it, President Obama referenced it during a Medal of Freedom ceremony, and it spawned physical merchandise including custom sneakers.

Caturday

2005

Caturday is the internet tradition of posting cat images and LOLcat memes every Saturday. The practice started on 4chan's /b/ board around 2005, spread through communities like LiveJournal and I Can Has Cheezburger, and turned into a weekly internet ritual still observed across social media. The hashtag #Caturday trends on Twitter most weekends, with users sharing photos and memes of their cats[1].

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.

Ugandan Knuckles
#004dead

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.

Yeet

Yeet

2014

Yeet is an exclamation and slang verb that exploded out of black social media culture in early 2014, first as a choreographed dance on Vine and YouTube before evolving into the internet's favorite word for throwing something with maximum force and zero concern. The word was voted the American Dialect Society's 2018 Slang/Informal Word of the Year and was added to Dictionary.com in 2021[2].

#006classic

Rickroll

1987

Rickrolling is a bait-and-switch internet prank where someone tricks another person into clicking a disguised link that leads to Rick Astley's 1987 music video for "Never Gonna Give You Up." Born on 4chan's /v/ board in May 2007 as an evolution of an earlier prank called "duckrolling," the Rickroll became one of the longest-running jokes in internet history. The official YouTube video passed 1.5 billion views[2], driven by nearly two decades of people gleefully tricking each other.

Confused Nick Young

2014

Confused Nick Young is a reaction image of NBA player Nick Young (aka Swaggy P) looking bewildered with question marks floating around his head. The image comes from a 2014 YouTube web series and went viral in 2015 on Black Twitter, becoming one of the internet's most-used visual shorthand for confusion and disbelief.

This Is Fine
#008classic

This Is Fine

2013

"This Is Fine" is a two-panel reaction image from KC Green's 2013 webcomic "On Fire," showing an anthropomorphic dog calmly sipping coffee in a burning room while saying "This is fine." Born from Green's personal struggles with depression and antidepressants, the comic became one of the most widely shared memes of the 2010s, used as shorthand for denial or forced calm in the face of obvious disaster[1]. The Atlantic called it "a work of near-endless interpretability," and its relevance kept growing through political crises, pandemics, and everyday stress for over a decade[13].
