Memes of 2017 by Alex

As 2017 comes to a close, I’d like to discuss some of this year's hottest memes. A meme is a funny or embarrassing moment captured in a video or picture with humorous captions on them. This year has been jam-packed with hot memes. Let's get started on the internet's favorites.

The “Catch me outside” meme is a classic. Basically, Danielle Bregoli was a thug on the Dr.Phil and was very tough-acting. She was rude to her mother, Dr.Phil, and the audience. When the audience booed her, she simply said her classic one-liner: “Catch me outside, How bout dah?” Someone made a meme out of this and it went viral. She now is known for that one-liner everywhere. She is also known as simply the "Catch me outside" Girl.

Another spicy meme that's pretty self-explanatory is the Snapchat dancing hot dog. This hot dog is known virally for its randomness and funny appearance. This is a hotdog in a bun with condiments on it.it has a face, and is wearing headphones. If you simply go onto the Snapchat filters one of them used to be the dancing hot dog. This viral hot dog had been taken down from the filter selection since Snapchat changes their filters periodically.

The last meme we will be talking about is the ‘bleach and tone’ meme from Tana Mongeau. Tana went to a new hairdresser to get her roots touched up because she has natural brown hair. However, she has been rocking blonde for a while. So she went to a new hairdresser. She bleached her hair but didn't tone. So her hair came out orange. She was not happy, so she said ‘bleach and tone’ so many times in her youtube video she came out with a t-shirt with the saying on it. She got it fixed, but she was so mad when explaining it on her youtube channel it got 2.7 million views. It is one meme I like because it was a youtube video and I thought it was so funny how it came out orange. So that's it for this week!

Signing off, xoxo
