Late yesterday morning, a funny thing was published on the Internet. It was a series of posts by whoever has the user account @KingBeyonceStan, built around a recurring motif or punchline:

This is British Prime Minister David Cameron's very serious talking-to-the-U.S.-President-about-Ukraine-face, which he shared with the world in a Twitter pic Wednesday. Somehow, the photo failed to convey the gravitas Cameron was aiming for.

Being a meme more or less sucks, especially if you aren't making any money off of your fleeting internet celebrity. That all goes double if your meme stems from a mugshot, like in the case of Meagan Simmons, who this week filed suit against a mugshot website for using her famous booking photo in ads.

When news of an unarmed black teen who was shot and killed by a "neighborhood watch volunteer" while on his way home first gained national attention last year, the phrase "I am Trayvon Martin" took hold as the official rallying cry of supporters looking, as Feministing put it, to lift the story "out of the particular."

In a series of rambling, grammatically challenged Facebook and Twitter posts published last night, Internet personality Antoine Dodson appeared to claim that he was "no longer into homosexuality" and was now a devout Hebrew Israelite instead.

This will most likely be the very last Harlem Shake video you will ever see, given that the erstwhile viral sensation has given way to much worse memes.

A study published in the latest issue of Pediatrics — the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics — is issuing a "call to arms to parents and doctors" who are unaware of the serious medical conditions that could arise from engaging in the so-called Cinnamon Challenge.

A week ago Saturday, a reddit user named Naratto used the Confession Bear meme to discuss a murder. "My sister had an abusive meth addict boyfriend," Naratto posted. "I killed him with his own drugs while he was unconscious and they ruled it as an overdose."

In a world of ill-advised YouTube challenges, the "Condom Challenge" stands alone.

This past Saturday, a reddit user named Naratto used the Confession Bear—a meme with which reddit users admit often-true secrets like being obsessed with a brother, loving Justin Bieber, enjoying the smell of one's own balls—to talk about a murder. "My sister had an abusive meth addict boyfriend," Naratto claimed. "I killed him with his own drugs while he was unconscious and they ruled it as an overdose."

The image macro meme Confession Bear is mostly used to bare one's soul concerning trivial matters such as loving the smell of one's own balls.

Deputies in Putnam Country, Tennessee, who were called to investigate reports of someone crying for help were relieved to find that the source of the screams was just a goat tied to a fence.

We've had goats yelling like humans, more goats yelling like humans, goats screaming like humans. Truth be told, the meme was getting a bit stale.

The "Knife Game Song" isn't all that new: It first appeared online way back in 2011, and even managed to garner over 100k views shortly after it appeared on YouTube.

Hey, remember the Harlem Shake? Me neither.

It seems Vitaly Zelkovsky, the stoic Belarusian tourist, has finally met his match.

Anyone can express disinterest in traveling the globe and seeing the sights — but it takes some serious stoicism to express disinterest while standing in front of those sights.

Internet things, am I right?

YouTube superstar Freddie Wong finally gets around to making his own Harlem Shake video — and in traditional Freddie Wong fashion, he brings the whole Harlem Shake house down with him.

The Harlem Shake.
