deeply annoyed by the whole what does
the Fox say thing almost as soon as it

a Norwegian comedy duo called Elvis were
immediately everywhere which isn’t
surprising considering they’re the Fox

album and in 2018 even launching a TV
show called stories from Norway that is
part mockumentary and part musical
comedy number 8 bad luck Brian

school yearbook photo made him famous
this became one of the most commonly
used memes starting back in 2012 when
Ian Davies submitted the original
iteration of the meme to Reddit the
photo he used was of his friend Kyle
Craven who henceforth became known as
bad luck Brian Craven has come forward
to confirm his identity and answer

ridiculously photogenic guy yeah let’s
just say that’s not how we look when we
run said a little was just minding his
own business participating in the Cooper
River bridge run in 2012 when a
photographer snapped this super composed
picture at a perfectly opportune moment
he was the one he was actually just
looking straight at the camera smiling
the Sun was hitting his hair as it was
just blowing in the wind as soon as the
photo made its way online into
discussion forums little was dubbed of
course ridiculously photogenic guy he
soon did the media circuit sharing his
story and informing his new army offense
that unfortunately for their romantic
dreams he was in a happy and committed
relationship but little isn’t
capitalizing on his fame too much these
days he’s keeping a low profile working
in restaurant management I kind of feel
honored to be part of like a joke that’s
in good spirits you know because
sometimes the internet can be a little
bitch asur you know
you know jokes can get bent the wrong
way but these are all good for the most
part positive it number six
firstworldproblems woman what do you
think it’s like to be the face of first
world problems ask Italian actress
Silvia batini because she’s been living
it for years a stock image of booty knee
shedding a tear has been used to
encompass every trivial white person
problem the internet can come up with
but the real-life glamorous batini is
barely recognizable as
firstworldproblems woman and is a
working fess peon and model of course in
Los Angeles she’s appeared in numerous
productions particularly place and
doesn’t publicly discuss her internet
fame number 5 scumbag Steve sometimes
you’re just a guy trying to promote your
rap game and your image ends up becoming
symbolic of stoner bro damn across the
internet that’s what happened to blake
boston also known as scumbag Steve the
original photo used in the meme was
taken by Boston’s mother and ultimately
took off online hey Blake Boston itself
is a meme Abul name really showed he
since put a pause on his rap career and
doesn’t regret his internet notoriety
and prominence including using his
Twitter feed over the years for
political advocacy I think the original
person who made up scumbag Steve was
gonna act they’re actually trying to
ruin me because you know I’m aspiring
hip-hop artist I’m trying to be
something like do hip-hop often
mentioned in the same breath as scumbag
Steve is good guy Greg but the man
behind this image remains a mystery
number four hot convict most modeling
careers don’t start with a mug shot but
this one did after police in Stockton
California posted Jeremy Meeks his
mugshot online people quickly dubbed him
hot convict because of his piercing blue
eyes and chiseled jaw when he got out of
prison he began modeling in both print
and on the runway and has appeared in
fashion magazines like Vogue
Jeremie rocked an all-black ensemble for
his big debut but we couldn’t stop

ermahgerd sometimes a girl just wants to
pose with her collection of goosebumps
novels and not be turned into a viral
meme okay so you might be disappointed
to learn that the origins of her Gege
sperms might not actually be as
authentically dorky as you imagined
Maggi golden burger the girl who appears
in the picture was actually just goofing
around with her friends and dressing up
in silly costumes when the pic was
snapped it wasn’t until many years later
that it ended up a viral sensation today
golden burger works as a nurse in
Arizona and largely goes unrecognized I
didn’t expect this keeps coming up and
again and again I thought you know okay
this is gonna be funny for a week and
then it just keeps keeps growing I just
don’t know why number two success kid
whenever you need to send a message of
determination and victory you can always
fall back on success kid but hey it can
work as an image of frustration too it
contains multitudes and in real life
this little boy now very young teenager
has used his internet fame to create
some genuine successes Sammy Greiner is
the little boy from the success kid meme
and the confident photo of him with a
fistful of sand taken on a beach in 2007

products with the mean to raise money

see my dad alive
number one overly attached girlfriend

will be your girlfriend you may not
realize it but this meme actually
started as a youtube video created for a
contest lena morris created this parody

course is the enduring overly attached
