This is a single-panel reaction meme. The top of the image features bold text reading 'when it's Friday the 13th but you haven't seen one spooky meme'. Below this text is an enraged animated cartoon skeleton holding both arms raised in an exasperated gesture, set against a dark spooky background with a wrought iron fence. The bottom of the image has text reading '*angry dooting intensifies*', referencing the popular internet trope of skeletons playing trumpets (colloquially called 'dooting'). The joke plays on the widespread expectation that Friday the 13th, a date culturally associated with bad luck and spooky themes, will be saturated with spooky themed memes online, with the skeleton personifying the frustration of not seeing any of these expected memes on the relevant date.

This is a remixed version of the classic 'It Ain't Much But It's Honest Work' meme. It features a photograph of a middle-aged American farmer wearing a baseball cap, plaid shirt, and denim overalls standing in front of his expansive crop field under a clear sky. Bold white text with black outlines is overlaid at the top reading 'IT AIN'T MUCH' and at the bottom reading 'BUT IT'S HONEST WORK'. The meme is used in the context of users reporting all ads that promote AI use as low quality, framing this small, unremarkable action as a worthwhile, morally consistent effort to push back against unwanted AI promotional content.

This 4-panel comic meme features the popular 'Chill Guy' anthropomorphic brown dog character meeting the Grim Reaper in the afterlife, signified by the halo above his head. Panel 1: The Grim Reaper tells Chill Guy 'IT IS TIME TO GO.' Panel 2: Chill Guy asks the Reaper 'Was I a good meme?' Panel 3: The Reaper bluntly responds 'NO.' Panel 4: As Chill Guy attempts to justify his popularity by saying 'At least im a Chi-', likely referencing the similarly over-saturated Chiikawa meme franchise, the Reaper rudely cuts him off saying 'Please shut the fuck up.' The humor comes from mocking the overexposure and audience fatigue of overused viral meme characters in 2020s internet culture.

This is an outdoor portrait photograph of Michael Rosen, the famous British children's author and widely recognized internet meme icon. He is facing the camera directly with a wide, joyful toothy smile.

The image is shared as a birthday tribute to honor his 80th birthday, acknowledging his status as a beloved "meme lord" for his widely circulated expressive reaction images across social media.

This is a 2-panel edited meme using a scene from the animated sitcom Family Guy. In the top panel, the character Lois Griffin has her face covered by a white square printed with the number 67, with her arms outstretched in a complaining pose, paired with the caption 'You guys always act like you're better than me'. In the bottom panel, three other Family Guy characters (Chris, Meg, and Peter Griffin) are dressed in fancy, high-status formal wear (tuxedos, evening gowns, top hats), with their faces covered by white squares showing the numbers 21, 420, and 69 respectively, sitting on couches looking authoritative and prestigious. The joke revolves around the fact that 21 (the legal drinking age in the US, widely referenced), 420 (universal slang for cannabis culture), and 69 (a well-known sexual innuendo) are all extremely commonly referenced numbers in internet and meme culture, while 67 is an unremarkable, rarely referenced number that feels left out and less important than the more popular numeric memes.

The image features the widely used meme shot of George Clooney as Batman from the 1997 *Batman & Robin* film, grinning widely in a mischievous expression against a dark, blue-toned background. White text is overlaid at the top reading 'This is fake', and text at the bottom reads 'I drew the icons Do not swipe this'. A '1/2' marker is present in the top right corner, indicating this is the first slide in a 2-slide carousel post. The post is a troll, as the text asking users not to swipe is intended to encourage viewers to swipe to the second slide to see the supposedly drawn icons the text references.

This image is a portrait of actor Chuck Norris in his iconic role as Cordell Walker from the TV series *Walker, Texas Ranger*, wearing a black cowboy hat, dark blazer, and black shirt with a sheriff's star badge. Added text at the bottom reads "CHUCK NORRIS" in white, followed by "1940-2026" in red, creating a fake death announcement. This is a joke playing on the decades-long popular "Chuck Norris facts" meme trope that portrays Chuck Norris as immortal and superhuman; the original post on 9GAG used a long string of the letter F as the title, which is an internet slang reference to "press F to pay respects" for this fake death hoax.

This is a pun meme mourning the death of famous actor and long-time internet meme icon Chuck Norris, who is stated to have been born 1940 and died 2026 at the age of 86. The core joke is a word swap: the standard obituary phrase would be 'Chuck died at the age of 86', but the meme reverses this to read 'Number 86 died at the age of Chuck', swapping the number (his age at death) with his first name, creating a silly pun that references the man himself. The image uses a black-and-white portrait of Chuck Norris, with a black mourning ribbon added to honor his passing, and his birth and death years overlaid at the bottom.

This is a hand-drawn cartoon meme depicting Chuck Norris, the famous actor and popular internet meme icon, drawn in a crude art style similar to *The Simpsons*. He wears a black fedora and an open-collared white shirt, grins widely, and raises one arm in a clenched fist in a motivating, determined pose. The background is split between a light yellow and pale purple solid color block. The meme is framed as an encouraging iconic figure that will appear to help when a great final conflict happens.

This is a nostalgia-focused meme featuring a well-known photograph of Chuck Norris, the famous American actor and martial artist, in his iconic 1990s look from the show *Walker, Texas Ranger*. Text above the image states that modern young people will never understand how legendary this man is, then asks the audience to share their favorite known facts about Chuck Norris. This references the long-running internet meme trend of 'Chuck Norris facts', which are absurd, hyper-exaggerated jokes about Chuck Norris' toughness and masculinity that were extremely popular on the early 2000s internet.
