Attention all fairytale things. Lord Farquaad has just announced that short kings everywhere are allowed to fake their height, start random duels, and send strange green ogres to go fetch them a bride out in the countryside. Obviously it makes sense not to mention the dragon guarding the princess in question, and some of those suitors may d!e, but that's a sacrifice he's willing to make. Welcome to Duloc!

For those of us Shrek fans who listened to 'All Star' by Smash Mouth on loop or learned karaoke hits from our real fairy godmother, we live by one saying and one saying only: Shrek is love, Shrek is life. Perhaps you were never haunted by Internet deep fakes that came after the real Dreamworks hit, but either way, the gruff Scottish voice of Mike Meyers as everyone's hottest ogre can still narrate your dreams and lives rent free in your core memories forever. Shrekians can gather today to enjoy this fine collection of memes straight from the swamps of our online world.
