Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho made history on Sunday when his film Parasite won both the Oscars for Best Picture and Best Foreign Language film. The film has been hailed as satirical genius - a deft and stunning criticism of capitalism. While the irony of the Parasite winning these accolades in a room of insanely wealthy people is entertaining, the memes have been even more thrilling. The director was photographed making his statues kiss after his big wins, and the image very quickly morphed into the evening's best meme. Here are some of our favorites.

While some of the jokes can be repetitive (people seem to love riffing on Parasite and Midsommar in particular) the general theme of slowly letting people in on a joke is universally fun. We're also in support of anyone willing to mock internet influencers who think their motivational tweets are remotely deep or revolutionary.

It was a close call," he said.
Doctors say he had probably had eaten a salad with unwashed ingredients.
