"IRL Troll Posters" have be entertaining internet users for a whopping ten years. The first known instance, according to Know Your Meme, was ten years ago today on October 23, 2007. The poster in question is not a missing poster, but a plea to "Look At This Dog," because he is "the most beautiful god damn dog in the world." Many IRL troll posters have made the same joke regarding other majestic animals, while others focus on pop culture or politics. To celebrate 10 years of this fun meme format, we've gathered our favorite joke posters of all time. Enjoy!

Here are the posters for the series as well as the posters of the films they pay homage to.
