This meme uses the popular 'Outstanding Move' template, featuring a chess commentator gesturing at a chessboard. The top text reads: *'Telling others to donate $3 to Wikipedia so you don't have to donate yourself'*, and the bottom text reads: *'Outstanding move'*. The humor comes from framing a petty, cost-avoidant tactic (benefiting from Wikipedia's free service without contributing to its funding, by getting others to donate) as a brilliant, masterful chess play, using sarcasm to poke fun at people who exploit free online resources.

This multi-panel meme uses edited scenes from *SpongeBob SquarePants* to satirize the widespread, often excessive use of age verification checks by major online platforms like Discord and Apple. The first five panels feature Squidward Tentacles (with Discord/Apple logos over his face, representing frustrated users) yelling in escalating frustration: first accusing others of using age verification, then realizing they themselves are subject to it, and finally asking if any platforms avoid these checks. The final panel shows Patrick Star with a blank, dismissive posture, paired with the overused corporate justification: "IT'S FOR THE KIDS". The meme captures the annoyance of users tired of repetitive age verification requests and critiques the unconvincing, formulaic justifications provided by companies.

This meme repurposes a viral photograph of actor Kieran Culkin from the 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards, where he reacted to winning an award by covering his face in an exhausted, overwhelmed manner. The top text caption reads: *Call of Duty creators when they realise they just got another story for a new game*, which uses sarcasm to joke about the yearly release schedule of the *Call of Duty* video game franchise. It implies that the franchise's developers are burnt out from the constant pressure to produce new content annually, framing the arrival of another story idea as an additional burden rather than an exciting opportunity.

This two-panel meme humorously subverts expectations by contrasting the **Great Sphinx of Giza** (left panel, labeled "fake") with a domestic cat (right panel, labeled "real") that is lying in an identical, rigid front-paw extended pose mimicking the famous landmark. The joke leans into the idea that the cat is the "true" real man/sphinx, playing on the stoic, iconic posture of the Sphinx and framing the historical monument as less "authentic" than the cat's natural mimicry.

This meme features a cropped headshot of real-life public figure Jeffrey Epstein, displaying a smug, self-assured expression, set against a plain black background. To the right of his face, bold, white all-caps text reads: **THEY'LL BLOW UP THE PLANET BEFORE SHOWING YOU MY LIST OF FRIENDS**. The meme satirizes the widespread conspiracy theories surrounding Epstein's infamous 'black book' of high-profile associates, humorously exaggerating that powerful, unseen forces would take extreme, apocalyptic measures to prevent the full contents of the list from being made public. It plays into public speculation about hidden connections and cover-ups involving wealthy and influential individuals linked to Epstein.

This meme is a screenshot of a social media-style post from user @girltweeteds (with an Instagram handle noted at the top). The core text presents a humorous, sarcastic scenario: what if everyone collectively stopped engaging with celebrities, resulting in their posts receiving only 13 likes—an extremely low number compared to the massive engagement famous people typically get. The joke plays on the stark contrast between the inflated online presence of public figures and the mundane, low engagement of average users' content, echoing the sentiment of the original title 'Stop making stupid people famous' by critiquing the overexposure of certain celebrities. The profile picture features an animated character with an annoyed expression holding a drink, which reinforces the fed-up, dismissive tone of the post.

This is a screenshot of a TikTok video showing a real woman with long dark wavy hair wearing a light grey fur coat, looking upwards with a neutral expression. Overlaid on the image is text that reads "so grateful I'm straight because imagine having a bad day, getting home and there's a another bitch", a sarcastic joke that implies that two women in a same-sex relationship would both be in bad moods at the same time, contrasting with being straight where you come home to a male partner. TikTok UI elements with engagement counts are visible on the right side of the screenshot.

This is a three-panel reaction meme. The top-left panel shows a normal portrait of public figure Lauren Southern with a skeptical expression. The top-right panel shows a badly over-edited version of another photo of her, with drastically overdone beauty editing: oversized lips, heavy blush, overdrawn eyebrows, and an uncanny distorted look, as she speaks into a microphone. The bottom panel shows Jenna Fischer (known for playing Pam Beesly on *The Office (US)*) with a neutral, unimpressed expression reacting to the bad edit. The meme jokes about a poorly done AI or automatic beauty edit that was sent by a corporate marketing or design team, mocking how low-quality and overdone corporate editing tools often are.

This is a two-panel comparison meme that contrasts different regional attitudes towards the American diaspora. The left panel features Goku from Dragon Ball with heart-shaped love hearts for eyes, looking excited and infatuated, with the caption 'How non-Europeans view their American diaspora'. The right panel features a still of Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Star Wars franchise with a neutral, slightly unimpressed and grim expression, captioned 'How Europeans view their American diaspora'. The joke relies on the contrast between the romanticized, adoring view non-Europeans are portrayed as holding of American diaspora populations, versus the underwhelmed, unimpressed view Europeans are shown to have of their own American diaspora communities.

This meme uses the unimpressed, tired depiction of Squidward Tentacles from *SpongeBob SquarePants* to address common overreaction to OpenAI removing the standalone Sora AI app. The on-image text corrects widespread misconceptions that AI or Sora's video generation technology is dead, clarifying that only the individual standalone app was removed and ChatGPT will still retain Sora's functionality. The original title frames this defensive response as an extreme example of internet 'cope' (defensive overreaction to perceived negative news).

This is a two-panel meme that uses two modified versions of Mickey Mouse to joke about the common online opinion that older Reddit posts are often better, more accurate, and more entertaining than answers from modern AI chatbots. The top panel features a grotesque, distorted fused double-head Mickey Mouse labeled with the names of the three most popular modern AI chatbots: ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok, framing AI as low quality and broken. The bottom panel features a muscular, buff Mickey Mouse labeled '12y old reddit post', framing old archived Reddit content as strong, reliable, and high quality, making the point that old internet content is superior to modern AI for many common use cases.

This is a side-by-side comparison meme that jokes about Disney's ongoing trend of turning animated classic films into live-action remakes, specifically the upcoming live-action *Moana*. The left side features the original animated Maui from Disney's *Moana*, labeled as 'DLSS 5 Off', while the right side shows Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson (who voiced the original animated Maui) as the live-action version of Maui, labeled 'DLSS 5 On'. The joke compares the jump from animation to live-action to NVIDIA's DLSS upscaling technology that improves video game graphics, leaning into the coincidence that animated Maui was already modeled after Dwayne Johnson's likeness.
