Let the memes flow through you!

Spit on the non-believers, boys. SPIT.

Creators in tech and gaming often have lofty ideas of what their products and games will be used for. Unfortunately for them, it's very easy for an army of dorks to take that vision and completely destroy it. VRChat is the latest platform to witness this type of mega-trolling, which has arrived in the form of the super-viral meme "Ugandan Knuckles."

Ugandan Knuckles was born from a Youtube video from user Gregzilla, in which a lumpy Knuckles is animated...and singing. Things were taken to the next level when DeviantArtist released a 3D model of Gregzilla's Knuckles which can be used as a VRChat avatar. Players began using the low-quality avatars to further the Ugandan Knuckles meme and to troll other VRChat players. You can see the trolling in action in these videos that feature scores of Ugandan Knuckles babbling and spitting on other gamers. It's an awe-inspiring and hilarious shit show. 

The Ugandan Knuckles meme isn't limited to videos - it's become so popular that it's taken over several meme subreddits, and the Ugandan Knuckles image gallery on Know Your Meme has already surpassed 131 images. Even its creator has said the meme has gotten out of hand. While there could be a little more variety on r/dankmemes, we still think the meme is riotously absurd and hilarious. Enjoy our favorite examples below. 

It's a big day for gamers - Sega's Sonic Mania was released today and has been receiving mostly positive reviews. The game, which is available on Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, is being touted as a return to its previous form.

To celebrate the game's release, we've gathered up our favorite, dankest Sonic memes from the past few years. Happy gaming and meme-ing, y'all. 

The latest Spider-Man film reboot was released this past Friday to mostly positive reviews - and a whopping $117 million in US box office sales. We urge you to see the film if you haven't, but in the meantime we've rounded up our favorite parodies of the movie's very crowded poster.

 Oh, and in case you hadn't heard: Iron Man is in the movie. 

Well, of the celebrities we thought we'd lose in 2017, we never imagined that we'd lose Knuckles the red anthropomorphic echidna. Alas we now know, thanks to the power of the internet, that as of today the poor fella is probably dead.

RIP you glorious red bastard.
