Do All The Things
The "Do All The Things" meme originates from Allie Brosh's popular webcomic, Hyperbole and a Half, specifically her 2010 post "Adventures in Depression." The image depicts a simplified, manic-looking character with wide eyes, an open mouth, and a pink body, often shown with an exaggerated yellow burst behind them, signifying intense energy or emotion. It's frequently accompanied by the phrase "Do All The Things!" or a variation like "Clean All The Things!" The meme's meaning revolves around an overwhelming urge or sudden burst of motivation to accomplish numerous tasks, often to an extreme or slightly frantic degree. It captures the feeling of being hyper-focused on productivity, sometimes leading to overcommitment or a humorous depiction of manic energy. Its usage is broad, applied to situations where one feels a sudden, intense desire to tackle a multitude of chores, projects, or activities, highlighting both the ambition and potential overwhelm of such a mindset.
These Aren't The Droids You Were Looking For
"These Aren't The Droids You Were Looking For" is a classic meme originating from the 1977 film Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. The image features Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness) using a Jedi mind trick on Imperial stormtroopers, accompanied by the iconic line. The meme is used to humorously represent situations where someone attempts to convince another person to ignore something obvious, accept a fabricated truth, or to deflect attention from an undesirable reality. It often implies a subtle form of persuasion, denial, or a successful act of misdirection, highlighting a moment of disbelief or forced acceptance.
I Don't Always
The "I Don't Always" meme features actor Jonathan Goldsmith, known as "The Most Interesting Man in the World" from Dos Equis beer commercials. Originating around 2010, the meme adapts his signature catchphrase, "I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis." The meme's format is typically "I don't always [do something], but when I do, [something specific/humorous happens]." It's used to express a strong, often exaggerated, preference or to highlight a specific, usually rare, condition or outcome for an otherwise common activity. This meme often conveys a sense of sophistication, choice, or unique circumstance in a humorous way.
Aragorn Black Gate For Frodo
The "Aragorn Black Gate For Frodo" meme originates from a pivotal scene in *The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King* (2003). In this moment, King Aragorn leads the armies of the West to the Black Gate, drawing the Eye of Sauron and his vast forces to distract them, uttering the iconic phrase "For Frodo." This act of apparent self-sacrifice is meant to buy time for Frodo Baggins to destroy the One Ring in Mount Doom. The meme symbolizes a desperate, often selfless, act undertaken to create a diversion or enable someone else to complete a critical, more important task. It's frequently used to represent confronting overwhelming odds or taking on an unpleasant duty so that another can succeed or escape a difficult situation. It conveys a sense of determined sacrifice for a greater cause or individual.

The image features a bank teller named Kevin, who is processing a transaction. The meme is typically used to illustrate the swift and often sudden disappearance, loss, or depletion of something – such as money, time, opportunities, or motivation. It captures a feeling of resigned disappointment, helplessness, or the quick realization that something valuable or desired is no longer available. It's often employed in a humorous context to lament a rapid loss.
Finally
The 'Scroll of Truth' meme originates from a 4-panel comic by Robatato Comics, first posted in July 2017. It features a character, often seen as an adventurer, who, after a long search, finally discovers "The Scroll of Truth." The scroll, however, contains an uncomfortable or universally ignored reality, leading the character to violently reject it with a frustrated "NYEHHH." This meme is used to humorously illustrate situations where people deny or react strongly against inconvenient facts, unpopular opinions, or self-evident truths that they simply don't want to accept. The blank scroll is typically edited to display the particular truth being rejected, making it a versatile template for sharing relatable and often cynical observations.
Black White Arms
The "Black White Arms" meme, widely recognized as "Epic Handshake" or "Predator Handshake," originates from a memorable scene in the 1987 action film *Predator*. In this iconic moment, characters Dutch (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and Dillon (Carl Weathers) greet each other with an intensely muscular and powerful handshake. The meme typically represents two distinct or often opposing entities, ideas, or individuals coming together in a strong agreement, collaboration, or mutual respect. It's frequently used to illustrate an unexpected alliance, a difficult but powerful compromise, or a moment of shared understanding despite differences. Users commonly label each arm with a concept or group to highlight their unified purpose or an ironic convergence.
I Sleep Real Shit

This meme is used to humorously contrast a lack of concern for one subject with an exaggerated focus on another, highlighting a user's priorities or what truly captures their attention. It often conveys a sense of "waking up" to something significant.
Stupid Dumb Drooling Puzzle
The "Stupid Dumb Drooling Puzzle" meme features a crudely drawn, drooling character attempting to force a square peg into a round hole of a shape sorter. Originating from the "brainlet" or Wojak meme ecosystem, it swiftly gained traction to depict profound incompetence or a complete lack of understanding. The meme's meaning centers on someone struggling with basic logic or a simple task, often with a vacant, idiotic expression. It is widely used to mock individuals or groups perceived as making obvious mistakes, failing to grasp straightforward concepts, or trying to apply clearly incorrect solutions to problems. Its usage spans various contexts, from online debates to commentaries on everyday absurdities, highlighting situations where common sense is conspicuously absent.
Guy In The Suit
The 'Guy In The Suit' meme, also known as 'Rubbing Hands Guy' or 'Mischievous Guy', originates from a stock photo featuring a man in a vibrant yellow suit, subtly peeking from behind a tree with his hands clasped and a cunning expression. The meme gained popularity for its versatile use in depicting a sense of mischievous anticipation, plotting, or observation. It is commonly used when someone is about to execute a questionable plan, or when observing a situation unfold with a hint of schadenfreude or hidden intentions. The man's intense gaze and hand gesture perfectly convey an eager, sometimes devious, readiness for an event or action.
