Just as in the "which NPC Are You Most Like" thread feel free to mix and match, i.e., if you feel you're a combination. If there's another that fits you better, which one?

    Sadly, I know only Y U No from that list XD

    At any rate - a year or so ago I would have gone with Forever Alone, definitely. Luck turned my side and now everything turned up to be great!

    I guess I could be a mix between "Challenge Accepted" and "Serious Business"

    My meme would be Socially Awkward Penguin, because I'm a bit of an introvert, get embarrassed easily and sometimes don't know how to act 'normally' around people. :p
    @Cheesebelly: *hugs* :)

    I don't get this all meme stuff. I didn't bother to explore the topic though. :) Penguin sounds good so I'll go for that.

    The memes are relatively new for me too. There's a concept behind each one.

    I had never really gotten the joke with Jospeh Ducreux, having never read it's description. But I just did and I laughed so hard I was crying when browsing the memes for him.

    These memes are hilarious. I knew a bit about them before, but had never really bothered to take a look at them. I'm glad I got turned on to them here.

    @Lemernis Which description do you mean? I just looked him up, turns out he was an awesome portrait painter though now google is just flooded with memes of him which is disappointing.

    The ones at Meme Generator. Here's links for each:

    Y U No
    Philosoraptor
    The Most Interesting Man in the World
    Socially Awkward Penguin
    First World Problems II
    Jospeh Ducreux
    Scumbag Steve
    Annoying Facebook Girl
    Good Guy Greg

    and of course there are many, many more to choose from at Meme Generator.

    Here's the description for the Joseph Ducreaux meme:
    Who was Joseph Ducreaux, really? For many years professors and students of history alike seemed to think he was just a successful portrait artist in the French court of King Louis XVI of France. But he was so much more. The fact that he survived to thrive after the French Revolution tells us we are lucky to not have lost the pearls of wisdom that are now being attributed to him.

    This meme started when some witty and insightful person came across the now infamous portrait of Monsieur Ducreaux. A seeming anomaly of the time, the painting shows Joseph Ducreaux in a pose that did not become popular until the late 20th century. But there he is, cane in hand, pointing at the viewer and almost winking.

    At first glance, he looks like a lounge act singer dressed for the completely wrong era, about to say something lounge-lizardy like “Heyyyyyy there. Lookin’ goooood!”. The photo of the painting, with old Joe in powdered wig and ruffled shirt really says it all, and the meme of Joseph Ducreaux took off from there.

    He translates current sayings into the verbiage of his time. One great example of this is “brethren Before Wenches”, which some savvy readers may recognize as a reworking of “Bros Before Hos”. When you encounter Monsieur Joseph Ducreaux, chances are he will be doing his job of rewording current slang, sayings, or catchphrases into ye olde speak of his time.

    Anyone can create a new meme. Who knows what will take off.

    It's actually kind of interesting to note what does end up catching on...

    It's interesting that Y U No is the most popular of all time, yet there's relatively few of him in the now epic meme thread, and no one has picked it here.

    I can definitely relate to Y U No in one particular aspect recently!:
