Is there a divine reason for certain memes to be grouped together? As you're scrolling through this list, I'm sure you've seen at least one of these memes in a different context. It might have been on Tumblr a couple of years ago, on Twitter last week, or this very website. Memes are inherently communal things that are shared repeatedly to secure their legacy. You don't think we're just pumping these things out on an assembly line, do you?

The question remains, though, why these memes? Why here? Why now? Was it part of your destiny to stumble upon this article and read all these memes in order? Was I meant to put 27 of these memes in this one place with not one out of sequence? It all gets a little too much if you dwell on these questions for too long. This is not what memes are for, dammit! Let's just have a good time. Do you want to have a good time? I do too. Let's read some memes.
