Nah its ancient historyIs the "Grog XD" incident still a meme?
Bullshit. The first truly viral video from Brazil was ‘two girls, one cup’.The very first viral video in the history of Brazil was made far before there even was internet for the masses.
The story goes like this: Back in 1983 or so, a couple of teenagers redubbed an episode of the 60's Batman live-action series, full of juvenile humor, expletives and whatnot. And for good measure, they also inserted a funny little song about going to the local flea market as background music. Originally it was just for kicks, to test their video and audio editing skills, but somehow the video ended up being spread around their city. Fast forward to the late 90's and very early 00's, when the internet starts gaining traction in Brazil, and the video was uploaded in .AVI form to a crude website, as well as being traded around in forums and chatrooms.
And thus a legend was born. Whenever we talk about Batman in Brazil, there is always the chance someone will either mention this video, or quote something out of it outright.
WIthout further adieu, here it is in remastered glory.
"Watch your language, Robin. Please." - Batman
"Shut up, you slut!" - Random punk
"I'm gonna fuck Batman's aunt!" - Joker
"Batman, where the hell did you get that Bat-Shield from?" - Robin
"You funny guy, you. Obviously it came out of my ass. Where else would I get it from?" - Batman
"Boss, I'm fucking tired of working here, that's all I do all day, I get my ass fucked here everyday!" - Random mook at Joker's hideout
"That document doesn't prove shit. All it shows is that the Joker is a son of a bitch. Speaking of sons of bitches, Robin is gonna get gangbanged tonight. Robin is a faggot!" - Batman
"Okay, but one by one. No need to spread the word about it." - Robin
Taringa was in itself its own meme.Picardias aka: "meme balls" were born from taringa, an Argentine social network and were huge here then it expanded abroad

Fucking hell and I thought the opposition in my country was pathetic"De diciembre no pasa" , "hallacas sin chavez/maduro"
as in, "chavismo government will fall and won't last past this December" . Hallacas are a christmas dish so the "hallacas without Maduro" phrase means "we'll celebrate christmas without the government", but its been 21 Decembers so is something said fully ironically as a meme nowadays. Kinda like Half life 3, its basically the same thing.
Ex.
- Did you hear what that us senator tweeted about Maduro being a tyrant and how he should get ousted?
- De Diciembre no pasa, Hallacas sin Maduro, confirmed
Doñas del Cafetal. These are our version of Karen, El Cafetal is a high income neighborhood in the Capital, this refers to old rich ladies that are disconnected from reality, send cringy prayer memes to save Venezuela and are extremely bluepilled and clueless.
Bailoterapias (Dance therapy). This is what people call political protests that are called by the fake opposition politicians, they are always these massive gatherings but they only play some dance music and then disperse without actually doing anything or going anywhere that is relevant, they just stay in safe zones of the city dancing before going home and achieving nothing. They are also called Yogazos (Yoga parties?), same idea, that is just a bunch of people doing yoga instead of something that would scare the government. Usually involving lots of Señoras del cafetal

Is just pictures of Rihanna but with captions as a malandra (malandro is just how we call slum niggers/criminals) . This is a tacky normie twitter meme that doesn't translate at all.

Britbong humor died with Sir Benny of the HillThe biggest and most long lasting UK meme I can think of is that one clip from 'Come Dine with Me', which gets quoted fairly frequently. Come Dine with Me is a show where stranger sput on dinner parties and rank one another's performances in several categories like how good the food and the entertainment was. There's always a few boring ones by students and single mums where they just get people to turn up in fancy dress and then serve some standard sunday night affair, then there's usually an eccentric older lady who does something embarassing, then a guy who takes it really seriously, and someone fucks up the food really bad and cries. Because it's British it's usually extremely awkward, and to the show's credit the editing is kept fairly minimal so you can just let all the awkwardness sort of wash over you.
Anyway, in this clip the Guy Who Tries Too Hard gets very mad because he lost, and throws a tantrum. It's very quotable.
UK politicians have a habit of saying/doing stupid things which then get memed. Mostly the memes die after the election, but sometimes they are so good that they stick around. I dunno what it is about our politicians, but they are just constantly getting photographed making stupid faces or looking awkward. There are so many pictures out there of Theresa May with her limbs all flung out like she's got no joints.
I don't know how well known this was outside of the UK, but when the stories about then-PM David Cameron supposedly having sex with a severed pig's head as part of a hazing ritual at uni came out, there were quite a few memes.

Also Teresa May claiming that she once ran through a field of wheat (?) was a small meme. I went to a few uni parties where people were dressed as May with some form of wheat as a prop. The May dancing meme was pretty big outside the UK, so there were a few mashups of the May Memes.

Ed Miliband was sort of a meme in himself, with the bacon sandwiches and the monolith and everything, but that might fall under general political memes. The bacon thing was mostly funny because Miliband is apparently Jewish, and is also a weird looking bastard.
The most famous one I can think of, though is Nick Clegg's apology for failing to deliver on his promise not to raise uni tuition fees if elected. For those who don't know- the lib dems promised that uni fees would not go up, as (iirc) the conservatives were talking about raising them. The conservatives and Lib Dems formed a coalition, and uni fees were raised to £9,000 a year. This obviously made people very angry and upset, so Clegg released this banging apology which was later songified.
This would be the defining moment of his career, and after losing basically all of their seats in the next election, the Lib Dems returned to irelevancy and Nick Clegg (who had lost his seat) fucked off to obscurity.
This one's very regional, but it's funny. While I was at Uni two people were found in one of the campus buildings passed out mid-coitus at like 7AM, having snuck in drunk the night before. No one knows who they are or why they thought the IT building was the best place for a cheeky drunk shag. Photos of their passed out interlocked bodies leaked and it became a uni-wide meme for a long while afterwards with enough mainstream attention that Vice did a shit article on it. Most of the memes were just spread around facebook and whatsapp groups so many of them are lost to time, for better or for worse.
Sending them from Venezuela to Peronia? thats seems cruel. I think is more common for venezuelans already there to want to leave argentina before living through the whole situation again.if you're gonna send more black chicks down here they better be hot
We don't even have political opposition, there's only red chavismo and blue chavismo. Fun fact: every single political party under the "opposition" umbrella is a member of the socialist international. So of course they will tell people to "play salsa music really loud" as a form of protest when the government steals an election (Capriles literally did this)and I thought the opposition in my country was pathetic
lol, that seems about right. Its usually that or venezuelans chimping out against other third worlders and viceversa. Those xenophobic shit flinging contests are usually funny, specially peruvians vs venezuelans.7 months ago, felt like I had to show it to you.
so this is were that Black Mirror episode came from?I don't know how well known this was outside of the UK, but when the stories about then-PM David Cameron supposedly having sex with a severed pig's head as part of a hazing ritual at uni came out, there were quite a few memes.
Maybe thats why I only see ugly bitches from over there hereSending them from Venezuela to Peronia? thats seems cruel. I think is more common for venezuelans already there to want to leave argentina before living through the whole situation again.
Same shit here, macri was peronism-lite, he got even more people on welfare and fake-retirement than the peronists when in reality he should've told them to get fucked and sell their asses if they need the money. Our deficit its sky-high because of all the villeros living off daddy governmentWe don't even have political opposition, there's only red chavismo and blue chavismo.
