If you're a fan of the cult classic Shrek, then you're lucky as hell because there is certainly no shortage of memes about the green ogre himself.
Fun tidbit: did you know that the Shrek story originated from a 1990 children's book of the same name? Now you do! It was written by cartoonist William Steig and purchased by Stephen Spielberg in 1991.
Now onto the Shrek memes!
Smash Mouth's 'All-Star' is a meme all its own (as can be proved in our lists here and here) but one good samaritan by the name of Isaac Meyer decided to take his devotion to the next level by translating the popular tune into the ancient language of Aramaic. And then translating it back to English. The nearly prophetic-sounding translation went viral after being tweeted by Jen Maglio, and people on Twitter went absolutely nuts over it. After haters started to argue with the translation's authenticity, Meyer himself uploaded a video performing his translation and shutting down the doubtful whiners. We're far from experts in ancient languages, but this sh*t is unbelievably entertaining. We choose to believe in the translation's authenticity, and thank Meyer for helping the world, one Aramaic translation at a time.
From their monster hits All Star, I'm a Believer or Walkin' on the Sun, to their hilarious Twitter account, it's hard to not love late-'90s legends Smash Mouth. In their honor, here are 14 memes that celebrate the band's absolute genius. We really hope you love them as much as we do.
