shrek memes

It's hard to be kind of old in the age of TikTok. It can be hard to navigate the app (please help us) and whenever we open it we feel increasingly out of touch. The music. The references. Oh god, the dances. But there are still some net positives where the app is considered, and over the past week this has been evident thanks to the 'Trade Offer' memes that have been popping up all over Reddit and Instagram.

The TikTok meme that led to these less irritating image macros was started by @natebellamy4 who posted a video proposal to "God" involving trading hated humans for beloved and sadly deceased public figures. The meme took off, inspiring @bradeazy to share a slightly less wholesome (and less egalitarian) version involving trading "sloppy toppy" for...nothing. @bradeazy's version of the meme has since been utilized as very versatile meme format, for everything from happy "trades" involving caring for one's pets or spicier historical memes about conquistadors and sketchy CIA dealings in Latin America. They've definitely been spicing up our timeline, so we figured we'd share our favorites with you. Care to accept the offer?

You don't have to feel guilty about spending time on the internet. Especially not right now. You deserve the laughs (and sometimes disgust) that memes provide. And we've got a whole lot of them right here for you.

What's not to love about a brand new Shrek meme? This particular meme combines our favorite green ogre with some self-deprecating humor, and we're all about it. Check out more at Know Your Meme!

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!

Everyone's favorite green ogre is getting a reboot! Producer Chris Meledandri has stated that he plans to keep the original voice actors while creating new story lines. Some Shrek fans are skeptical about the revamp of the beloved cult classic, while others are stoked.

Will it be good? We don't know - all we really want is for Smash Mouth to be involved.

Did you know the word Shrek comes from the German "Schreck", which means fright or terror. This is the part, when you run. Shrek has made his way into all sorts of different merchandise. But if you are looking for a movie that took the world by storm in the same way, Bird Box and these hilarious memes are definitely a place to ramp it up (you might even find a Shrek meme thrown in there). 

What would we ever do without Shrek, the cult-classic animated film that Millennials just can't get enough of? Well, for starters we certainly wouldn't have the excellent memes that often result from it. Not to mention Smash Mouth probably wouldn't have blown up like they did, and that's just tragic to think about. 

Anyway, please enjoy these trending memes, known as "Good Question"!

In honor of our favorite band in the entire world, we're bringing you the best Smash Mouth memes we could find. And if you don't like Smash Mouth, well 1.) you're wrong, and 2.) these memes will make you a believer (sorry).

SomeBODY once told me Shrek is love, Shrek is life. And they were the sharpest tool in the shed, so I trust their judgement. Shrek took the world by storm and few animated titles or feature films can put a candle to the duration of time during which Shrek was everywhere any time a new title came out. So continue to enjoy all that Shrek has to offer with some hilarious Shrek memes. Or, if you ever wondered how punny Shrek could be, this meme might provide you an answer. But don't ogre-do it. 

Most Marvel fans are in a state of shock following the Marvel Cinematic Universe's equivalent to The Red Wedding. So much death and destruction, packed into a very short period of time. As with any important moment in pop culture history, the disintegration of everyone's favorite superheroes has become the subject of a good many dank memes. It's worth nothing that disintegration effect memes have been around for about a year - one even predicted Spider-Man's fate to a T. We can't wait for Thanos to get his ass whooped and for all of our beloved characters to return, safe and sound.
