Behind The Meme

The “Me Gusta” Guy…
The “Me Gusta” Guy is a character that is typically used to
respond to an awkward or disgusting event with “Me Gusta,” which means, “it
pleases me” in Spanish (often understood as “I like it” in English). This
meme character is my favorite; not only because of its hilarious face but also
for how much it relates to simple things people find pleasure full that you
would necessarily talk about. Here are a few simple examples.
The cold side of a pillow... so true
The “Y U No” Guy…
“Y U NO”
Guy is a character using desperate body language
and carefree grammar as a way to bring someone’s attention on a particular
subject or issue. It is extremely relatable because it’s used when you want to
tell a person who is wrong or naive, “How do you not see what I am talking
about!” It’s the meme that shows a person’s inner arguer when you know you are
right or someone is stubbornly wrong. It can also be used when you are just
simple frustrated about something not going your way. An example in my life
where this meme applies is when girls complain about how cold it is outside and
they are wearing short pants and a tank top. I just want to get in their face
and say “Y U No put on cold clothes like normal people!” Here are some
examples.
I swear this has happened to me before at school...
The Forever Alone Guy…
The Forever Alone Guy is a lonesome character that is used
to express loneliness and disappointment with life. Creators of this variety of
rage comic occasionally alter one word or both of the words “forever alone” for
a more humorous effect. This character is used for those relatable
situations where everyone sometimes feels alone. This meme is also has a bright
side cause it shows that some lonely situations are common and that you
shouldn’t feel like the only one in them. Here are some funny examples.
Oh so sad lol
The F*ck Yea Guy…
Fuck Yea Guy is a self-complacent looking character used to
express pride or victorious sentiments, like when you wake up a few seconds
before the morning alarm goes off. Another example is the way you present
yourself while walking out of an exam you knew you aced. A common feeling that
relates to this character is when your sitting in class and throw a paper ball
across the room and make it the small garbage can. The entire class locks back
at you and you feel like an NBA star, how are you posing?, just like the F*ck Yea
guy. This is also one of the most popular meme characters.
(Sorry for the language)
The Troll Face…
The Troll face, a.k.a. “Coolface” is a character used to
imply one’s intention to troll another. “Trolling” is the art of deliberately,
cleverly, and secretly pissing people off, usually via the Internet, using
dialogue. Trolling does not mean just making rude remarks: Shouting swear words
at someone doesn't count as trolling; it's basically just pushing peoples
buttons for the fun of it (we all know we have done it). Here are some examples of the Troll face used right.
