Thank god for memes. This year, humanity proved once again that there’s always something to laugh at, no matter how absurd it may be. 

From celebrities and Olympians to a pygmy hippopotamus, these memes left us in stitches.

Alice Guo

Is she a spy, or did she grow up on a farm? Well, ex-Bamban mayor Alice Guo’s fate now rests in the judiciary’s hands — that’s for sure. Still, as far as Pinoy netizens are concerned, they’ll never forget how she frustrated our senators with iconic lines like “Your honor, hindi ko po alam.”

Our Pinoy Olympians

Pinoys didn’t just express unwavering support for our athletes at this year’s Paris Olympics – they made memes out of them, too.

Whether it’s calling two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo a life-size Sonny Angel or going wild over that fanmade “Randomantic” TikTok video of Olympian pole vaulter EJ Obienna, Pinoys deserved their own gold medals for creativity.

“Jusko po! Jusko! Jusko!” – Arman Salon

Something shifted in the universe when TikTok creator Arman Salon channeled an Emmy-Grammy-Oscar-Tony-worthy performance, screaming “Jusko po!” like the phenomenal actress she is. She’s now an internet darling. And we say, dasurv.

“Thank you so mu—” – Claudine Barretto

From one great actress to another, Claudine Barretto was canonized by Pinoys as the internet’s new patron saint of gratitude after a TikTok compilation of her saying “Thank you so much” went viral.

Shine bright like Jen Barangan

Concertgoers typically sing along with their idols as they perform on stage. After all, it’s a once-in-lifetime opportunity.

However, Pinoys drew the line with influencer Jen Barangan, who had her mini-concert, flashlight, and all, during the Philippine leg of Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘GUTS World Tour.’

While Jen apologized for her actions, that didn’t stop her from becoming a meme. 

Moo Deng

Moo Deng had the world in her puddle stompers, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. She’s adorable, always glowing, and an absolute mood when she’s fired up with rage. 

“Thank you, Beyoncé!”

Conspiracy theorists say Beyoncé is so powerful that she can “eliminate” any potential rivals. That’s why artists publicly acknowledge and thank her to avoid “being eliminated” or keep the bad luck away. Does it make sense? No. Did we still participate? Of course.

“Very demure, very mindful”

This iconic TikTok monologue from Jools Lebron taught us that we’ve been going to the office all wrong this whole time. Because you should always be what? Very demure, very mindful. And remember this: never come to work with a green-cut crease or looking like Marge Simpson.
