The Best 2018 Memes Explained

Need explanations for any 2018 memes? You’ve come to the right place

Memes are life. But they can be a little mystifying when you first see a new one. So we’re here to explain all the new 2018 memes you’ve been seeing. It’s been a good year for memes, and there’s a little something for everyone here. From New Year’s to the Oscars to May the Fourth, the year has been generous in events. And it’s been bountiful in images with short Impact captions. But if you missed a month or two here or there, we’ve got just the gallery to catch you up. And though there are probably many more amazing memes still to come this year, these have really resonated with us so far.

My FBI Agent

This meme seized on the idea that electronic devices were being using for covert civilian monitoring. And it made it fun! Because if you’re going to have someone spying on you regardless, you might as well make friends with them.

Or use them for psychological/emotional support. Your fake (?) FBI agent is nothing if not a good listener.

Girther Movement

The Girther movement nameis a play on the birther movement which Trump so vocally supported. But this movement is, while less heavy, no less weighty. Confused?

It’s about the results from Trump’s recent physical exam, which made him seem exceedingly healthy. And taller, somehow, as well. It’s quite the phenomenon, and this meme had a good run.

Krusty Krab VS Chum Bucket

This is a meme pulled from the popular source, SpongeBob Squarepants. Basically, the Krusty Krab, where SS works, is the top panel. And its signature hamburger, the Krabby Patty, is good, real good.

The Chum Bucket, operated by the nefarious Plankton, is bad. Real bad. And that’s all there is to this meme. It’s a simple template, but simple works.

Super Bowl Kid

During the Super Bowl half time show this year, Justin Timberlake performed a medley of songs. And he had many fans with him on the field at certain points. Lots of them were ecstatic to be there. Most were at least excited.

But this kid was on his phone, as the picture shows. He became a meme overnight, frequently with a subcaption showing him searching for “who is justin timberlake?” Hilarious.
