This meme features a clear portrait of Harambe the gorilla overlaid on a waving United States flag background. White text at the top right reads "NEVER FORGET 5.28.16", referencing the date May 28, 2016 when 17-year-old gorilla Harambe was fatally shot by Cincinnati Zoo staff after a small child fell into his enclosure. Large text across the lower portion of the image reads "DICKS OUT FOR HARAMBE", the famous satirical tribute catchphrase that went viral immediately after Harambe's death and has remained a persistent internet meme reference. The meme was created to mark the 10-year anniversary of Harambe's death.

The meme displays a calendar entry for Thursday, May 28, which is noted as both the 10 Year Anniversary of Harambe's death and International Masturbation Day. Beneath the calendar section is a faded, iconic portrait of Harambe the gorilla, with the famous long-running Harambe meme slogan 'Dicks out for Harambe' overlaid at the bottom. The joke relies on the double entendre of the 'dicks out' phrase, linking the classic Harambe tribute meme to the coinciding International Masturbation Day observance on the same date.

This two-panel comparison meme contrasts popular modern information sources with older Reddit content. The top left text reads 'Google, ChatGPT', paired with a shot of SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star grinning widely and looking cheerfully goofy. The bottom left text reads '[deleted user] on reddit 12 years ago', paired with a serious, stern photo of footballer Cristiano Ronaldo in a formal suit, exuding authority. The humorous implication is that obscure, years-old posts from now-deleted Reddit accounts frequently contain more accurate, specific, or niche useful information than mainstream search engines and modern AI chatbots, positioning these unknown deleted users as the far superior information source.

This is a two-panel sarcastic cartoon meme. The top panel depicts a sidewalk outside a building with a folding sign that reads 'UNHATED YOUTUBERS' above a left-pointing arrow, followed by 'ANNUAL MEETING' below the arrow, directing people into the building. The bottom panel shows a completely empty large conference room with a long table and empty chairs around it. The joke implies that there are zero YouTube creators who are universally not disliked by any part of the audience, so no attendees showed up to the supposed meeting.

This is a two-panel comparison meme illustrating the joke of two distinct types of internet users. The left panel features the normal, brightly lit, cheerful animated character Mr. Incredible (Bob Parr) from Pixar's *The Incredibles*, representing casual online users. The right panel shows the distorted, unsettling uncanny grayscale version of Mr. Incredible from the popular 'Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny' meme, representing extremely online users. Both panels have the text string 'dQw4w9WgXcQ' at the bottom, which is the unique suffix of the classic YouTube Rickroll link for Rick Astley's 'Never Gonna Give You Up'. The joke is that casual users will not recognize the string, while extremely online users will immediately identify it as a Rickroll link, prompting the uncanny reaction.

This is a two-panel comic meme. In the first panel, a simple white cartoon character excitedly reaches toward a large yellow bubble containing encouraging, pro-individualism messages: "Be yourself! Live how you want to live! Don't let society dictate who you should be!". In the second panel, a pink cartoon character holds the white character back from the bubble, as the white character now looks nervous with a sweat drop, and the pink character asks "...but what if someone thinks it's CRINGE?". The joke satirizes how the widespread internet label of 'cringe' acts as an informal form of social control, discouraging people from authentic self-expression even when they are told they are free to be themselves.

This is a humorous meme that pairs a top text caption with a dramatic still from a sci-fi movie. The image shows a dying astronaut wearing a space suit, seated in a spacecraft cockpit with his eyes half closed, appearing to be on the brink of death. The caption jokes that the last surviving Wikipedia editor is using his final moments to edit the phrase "Humanity is" to "Humanity was" on Wikipedia as human civilization ends. The joke pokes fun at the common stereotype of Wikipedia volunteer editors being extremely dedicated to factual and grammatical accuracy, even in the most extreme, apocalyptic scenarios.

The image displays text over a blurry orange and black background resembling a black hole, stating a worrying scientific fact: there is a plausible scenario where the universe could collapse instantly with no advance warning, and humanity would have no time to react. Below this text is a social media comment thread with 2,327 total comments. The top comment from user Grug reads 'I won't let that happen' and has received 17.5k likes. A follow-up comment from user Kuro reassures other readers 'Guys it's okay Grug said he won't let that happen', earning 1,017 likes, and a final comment from user Lana adds 'Thank god we have grug'. The humor comes from the absurd, comforting contrast between the massive existential threat of universal collapse and the immediate, unwavering trust all commenters place in a random internet user to prevent the end of reality.

This image is a screenshot of a fabricated dark-mode X/Twitter conversation thread, featuring account avatars of Will Byers and Mike Wheeler from the TV series Stranger Things. The first tweet, posted by user @willthewise (using Will's avatar) reads 'Hi guys, i'm new to twitter. My name is Will', timestamped 11:12 PM 07 Aug 24. A reply from user @hotwheels (using Mike's avatar) makes a classic 'deez nuts' internet pun joke, phrased as 'will deeznuts fit in your mouth' to play on Will's name. The Will account replies with the sequence '166.321.990.249', a fake IP address (the number 321 is outside the valid 0-255 range for IPv4 octets), implying he has doxxed the commenter. This prompts the commenter to immediately reply with 'im sorry'. The joke hinges on the subversion of expectations: the poster who claims to be new to Twitter is actually very familiar with common internet pranks and responds with an exaggerated, absurd threat that shocks the prankster into apologizing.

This humorous meme features a staged photograph of a young man in formal wear lying inside an open casket at a funeral, holding and looking at a mobile phone whose screen lights up his face. The overlaid text at the top of the image jokes that the person in the casket is sharing one final meme before departing to hell, creating an absurd juxtaposition between the somber, serious context of a funeral and the casual, relatable habit of heavy internet users who browse and share memes constantly, even in ridiculous or inappropriate scenarios.

This image is a screenshot of a public post from the X (formerly Twitter) platform. It shows the profile of user @ThisisSnarky, whose display name is accompanied by a sunflower emoji, leaf sprig emoji, and 18+ content warning badge, plus an illustrated profile picture of a woman in a yellow top. The main text of the post humorously remarks that there is an art to oversharing conversationally while keeping all actual personal details private, and that the poster aims to become an expert at this skill.

The meme is a reaction animation showing a Black man with bleached blond hair, wearing a blue blazer, brown top, and large silver pendant chain. He first appears composed, holding a glass of wine, then grows increasingly disoriented, slumping forward and losing his balance as the sequence progresses. The same text is displayed above the sequence: "me when autocorrect doesn't immediately guess what I meant when I typed obcw7dmsyahusyqd". The joke is a sarcastic take on the unreasonable expectation many people have that autocorrect should be able to read their mind and decipher even completely random, nonsensical strings of letters and numbers that they type, mocking people who get unnecessarily frustrated at autocorrect for failing to do this impossible task.
