The meme features bold text at the top reading "This used to be a joke" above a screenshot from the game Fortnite, set in a desert area in front of the Station 99 gas station location. Four playable character skins are lined up on Fortnite spawn pads: an upside-down hanging Spider-Man from Marvel, the kaiju Godzilla, Peter Griffin from the animated sitcom Family Guy, and Goku from the Dragon Ball anime franchise. The humorous point of the meme is that the combination of these extremely disparate, unrelated fictional characters in the same game was once a commonly referenced absurd joke online, but Fortnite has since added all of these characters as official playable skins, making the former joke a reality. A Fortnite watermark is visible in the bottom right corner of the game screenshot.

This is a two-panel side-by-side comparison meme. The left panel is labeled 'Cartoon' and shows the standard flat cel-shaded design of Peter Griffin, the main character from the animated series Family Guy, in his typical outfit of a white collared shirt and green pants, against a simple outdoor background. The right panel is labeled 'Cartoon Movie' and shows the exact same character in the same pose and background, with the only visual difference being the addition of soft, subtle gradient shading to the character's skin and clothing. The meme sarcastically jokes about the common trend where theatrical movie adaptations of animated TV series only make minor, low-effort visual improvements like adding more detailed shading, rather than implementing major changes to the art style, presented as a joke about what makes the movie version 'closer to reality' as per its original title.

This is a single-panel reaction meme with text overlaid on a screenshot from the animated sitcom Family Guy. The top text reads "r/peterexplainsthejoke users trying to figure out how basic things work". Below the text, characters Peter Griffin and Lois Griffin are sitting on a living room couch, both squinting in confusion at reading material they hold: Lois looks at a menu, while Peter looks at an open book. The joke sarcastically mocks members of the Reddit subreddit r/peterexplainsthejoke, a community where users ask for explanations of jokes, for frequently asking for explanations of extremely obvious, simple jokes that most people would understand without extra context, comparing them to the intentionally unintelligent character Peter Griffin who struggles with basic concepts.

This animated meme shows clumsy cartoon character Peter Griffin from *Family Guy* spinning uncontrollably while falling through a cloudy blue sky, with every frame captioned 'DB Cooper after escaping with $200,000'. The joke plays on the famous unsolved real-life DB Cooper case: in 1971, DB Cooper hijacked a plane, extorted a $200,000 ransom, then parachuted out of the plane over the Pacific Northwest and was never seen or identified again. The meme humorously implies that Cooper never successfully landed safely after his jump, and is still tumbling to his death mid-fall, which explains why he was never found, matching the meme's original title 'And he was never seen again'.

This meme uses the iconic 'Pepperidge Farm Remembers' template from the animated sitcom *Family Guy*. The image features the elderly, world-weary Pepperidge Farm delivery driver character holding a bag of Pepperidge Farm cookies while seated in his delivery cart. The top text asks, 'REMEMBER WHEN 1000$ USED TO BE A LOT OF MONEY?' and the bottom text uses the template's signature line: 'PEPPERIDGE FARM REMEMBERS'. The humor and relatability stem from commenting on inflation and the declining purchasing power of the U.S. dollar—many people resonate with nostalgia for a time when $1000 felt like a substantial sum, whereas now it covers far fewer expenses due to rising costs of goods and services. The character's tired, nostalgic expression amplifies the sentiment of longing for a past era with greater monetary value.

This meme combines a screenshot of Stewie Griffin from the animated series *Family Guy* with text to deliver darkly humorous social commentary. In the image, Stewie sits in his high chair, holding a gun pointed into his mouth, with a tired, defeated expression. The text above reads: "Me in the future, when I'm no longer able to be hired to work and there are not enough young people to contribute with taxes to my government paid retirement because the economy didn't allow people to have children". The joke exaggerates the real-world anxiety around aging populations, declining birth rates, and the instability of government-funded retirement systems. It uses Stewie's dramatic, suicidal gesture to amplify the hopelessness of facing a future without financial security in old age, framing a serious societal issue through extreme, dark humor.

This is a 5-panel edited meme from the animated sitcom *Family Guy*, centered on a petty, vindictive joke. The meme features Peter Griffin and an animated depiction of God:
1. Peter asks, "Hey, do atheists go to hell?" and God replies "No."
2. Peter then asks a redacted, blanked-out question, implying a target he dislikes.
3. God responds angrily: "Straight to hell. To the boiler room of hell. All the way down."
4. Peter smiles and says, "Good, good. That makes me happy."

The humor comes from the flexible blank line, which lets viewers insert their own hated group, person, or thing as the target of God's extreme condemnation, leaning into Peter's established petty, selfish personality from the show. It's a relatable template for expressing lighthearted disdain for something or someone.

This three-panel meme uses Brian Griffin and Stewie Griffin from the animated TV show *Family Guy* to deliver a joke about DC Comics' Justice League. In the first panel, Brian is labeled 'Superman' and says, 'The Justice League will pay for the damages,' with a tired, resigned expression. The second panel shows Stewie reacting with wide, shocked eyes, looking at Brian. In the third panel, Stewie is labeled 'Batman,' maintaining his shocked, bewildered look. The humor comes from the common DC trope that Batman, being extremely wealthy, is always the one who ends up covering the costs of the Justice League's property damage, subverting Superman's statement by implying Batman will be the one footing the bill.

Peter, labeled 'US', stands with a smug expression, while Brian, labeled 'Other countries', faces him. The top text reads: 'Other countries when they see what we be eating for "breakfast"'.

A four-panel meme featuring Peter Griffin from Family Guy, each panel showing him in a straitjacket sitting on a couch with the same text overlay: 'Book readers after their favorite character goes through the most darkest, soul shattering, mind breaking thing ever imaginable then dies out of nowhere.' Peter displays a sequence of distressed expressions and agitated movements, including opening his mouth wide, slumping, and convulsing, humorously depicting the emotional breakdown of a book reader reacting to their favorite character's tragic and unexpected death.

A two-panel meme using screenshots from the animated TV show Family Guy. In the first panel, a character labeled 'Me' (resembling Stewie Griffin) sits in a car seat, responding sarcastically to a woman labeled 'HR' (resembling Lois Griffin) who says, 'We're not a team, we're family..' with 'No we're not..'. The second panel shows HR continuing, 'we'll have fun Friday this week, everyone should attend..', to which 'Me' retorts, 'You wish, bitch..'. The meme satirizes workplace culture where HR uses 'family' rhetoric to pressure employees into mandatory social events like 'fun Friday'.

A meme collage featuring animated characters from *Family Guy*. The top-left panel shows Peter Griffin with a confused expression, speaking in a speech bubble: 'WHY DOES A DOCTOR NEED TO STUDY FOR 10 YEARS TO TAKE DECISIONS FOR SOMEONES WHOLE LIFE, BUT AN ILLITERATE POLITICIAN CAN TAKE DECISIONS FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY?' The middle panel depicts a stadium scene with a bright laser beam striking an unseen person in the crowd. The bottom panel shows two严肃 (serious) police officers standing side by side, with a caption below: 'He was asking too many questions.' The meme uses sarcasm to critique the perceived lack of qualification for political decision-making compared to medical professionals.
