I see these type of images and derivatives popping up every now and then.

Anyone know where it’s from and what it’s called? I couldn’t find it on KYM, so is it actually worth being called a meme?

Edit: I found out the above image is called “Totoro Bus Stop”, don’t know if that’s the origin or the meme. I’m pretty sure that’s from the original scene it was in. But I still don’t know if it can be called a meme or deserves an entry. The below image is a Cthulhu derivative btw.

Totoro is a famous classic anime film (meaning that it’s not all those I-love-that-guy-but-that-guy-is-evil-or-has-an-infinite-amout-of-evil-exes kind or I-accidently-a-person-now-I-must-run kind of animes) by Hayao Miyazaki. I doubt that it can be seen as a meme, though I’ve seen some derivatives out there…….


The film’s pretty famous, and the raining bus stop scene is the most famous part in the movie, but I still don’t think so.

That looks to be an image of george costanza’s head and hands shopped onto the body of another popular internet image, which is a black guy laughing at something on his computer.

Unfortunately, I have neither image, will post back when I find them.

This is the only example i could find, so it’s shopped onto Rainbow Dash, but what do people call this calm, “handsome” face?

Can anyone tell me what this meme is called?

Usually it’s posted with the line:

BOOM

BOOM

CRASH

That’s all it takes for a burglar to break into your house with the intent to rob and kill you. Why don’t you own a gun?

That text makes me think it originates on /k/ and that’s where I most see it.

Unfortunately, I have neither image, will post back when I find them.

I think this is the original image:

That’s an image of Neil DeGrasse Tyson, a popular scientist guy in the flavor of Carl Sagan, Bill Nye, etc. I forget which video of his the image comes from:

(via: http://www.reddit.com/r/trees/comments/ju0vi/when_asked_if_i_smoke_weed_often_7/c2f4a11)

Not one of the most popular rage faces, I don’t think? Do we have an entry?

Does anyone know the black and white hand-drawn animal of some sort with its head bent at 90 degrees, with a clueless expression on its face? It usually represents stupidity/retardation. I can’t find any images of it now.

Are you talking about this dog that’s often used in Reddit’s F7U12 board?

Fun fact: The image was originally a drawing of keys but became used as a dog in rage comics.

I don’t know that it has it’s own name, but it’s been traced from this popular reaction face image of Toby Maguire:

I think it has been known to be called “What have you done?!” or “Why did you do that?!”

Does anyone know what the meme in the last panel is? I’ve seen it a lot outside KYM.

The third and last panel are just popular Computer Reaction Faces. I don’t think the last panel is more notable besides being one of the more popular variants.

Tenso. When they zoom in on a weird looking face, then zoom out and they ALL have the face.

Actually, Tenso is just zooming in. When zoomed out and having the funny face planted all over, it has become facebombing.

What is the name/picture of the one image macro where originally I believe it showed a guy meeting a black man on the street. The black man says some stuff and later says he is just joking. Then there is a later panel and it shows the guy posting and exaggerated account of his day on 4chan?
Thanks

That makes no sense. I haven’t seen that around at all, so I’m guessing it’s not actually a meme.

I don’t believe we have an entry for this, but I’ll say what I know of it.

It’s a relatively popular 4-pane comic consisting of a conversation between these two, usually ending in a racist or nazi-like remark.

It’s often called ‘Racist Cook,’ from a google search of it.

The guy in the suit is Hubert Urbanski, a polish actor.

It is from a commercial for Millennium Bank, in Poland, from what I can tell.

It seems to be a pretty popular 4pane comic, so an entry would be quite nice.
