One of our favorite memes is "They Had Us In The First Half," so we were extra excited to see this similar dank meme from the Sonic the Hedgehog movie featuring Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik uttering the line, "I was not expecting that."

Twitter can be a pretty intimidating place if you're new to the whole thing. That's why we've collected 44 fresh tweets for you to browse through - no need to sift through the mediocre content! It's perfect for Boomers and Millennials alike...well, maybe not Boomers because they'll never get it anyway.
We've been talking a lot about the Sonic the Hedgehog redesign, which has been a huge relief for fans of the blue critter. Since Paramount Pictures released their new trailer, redditors have been meme-ing bits of footage and they show no signs of stopping. The latest format to pop off utilizes a photoshopped scene featuring the new Sonic pointing sheepishly at the much-hated previous version of himself. It's become a popular way to make "Get a load of this guy" jokes about crap that's cringey and embarrassing. The format is extremely versatile, and while it lends itself to low-effort memery, many of them are pretty damn hilarious.
We know you've had a long, stressful week so we're trying to make it a little easier for you by delivering entertainment that doesn't require any intelligence or brain power whatsoever!
As you're probably aware by now, memers are positively freaking out about the Sonic movie redesign, and we can't really blame them. Was the whole thing a conspiracy in order to generate more publicity? We're inclined to say yes, but that's a whole other topic entirely.
For now, please enjoy these dank memes entitled, "How Are You Not Dead?"
Remember Sonic's cursed appearance from earlier this year? We wish we were able to banish its memory from our pristine minds, but alas. The only thing that's come close is the new trailer for the movie, featuring a Sonic the Hedgehog with far less teeth and bigger, more beautiful eyes. The speedy guy looks way more like the Sonic of our childhood - and Twitter seems to be incredibly relieved and impressed, for the most part.
While some fans are commending Paramount Pictures for their efforts in "fixing" the blue dude, others are convinced that the first and cursed Sonic trailer was merely a publicity stunt. They believe that this Sonic was the "true Sonic" all along. Whatever the truth, this movie seems like something we might be able to get through. And that's good enough for us.
First we were "graced" by the trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog, and now we get...Cats with a fully star-studded cast. You can watch the official trailer for it here if you dare. Once you've seen it, you'll understand where the myriads of mocking memes are coming from.
If you're familiar with the original Cats production from 1981 then you'll know of the level of campiness it offered. But if we're being honest here, it's 2019 and we think the effects could've been a little bit better for crying out loud!
Y'all already know there's been a huge resurgence of Minecraft memes all over Reddit and Instagram. A new one has just hit Twitter and it's absolutely overflowing with cringe. This one's some primo copypasta that started with a sheepish joke tweet from @indeprive that reads "what if I… put my Minecraft bed… next to yours .. aha ha, just kidding.. unless..?" The tweet's cringey and flirtatious tone made it ripe for parody. Twitter users started using the text with images of their favorite anime characters. One even brilliant roasts ProJared. We're looking forward to seeing this meme touch on some more fandoms, but have put together some of our current favorites while we wait anxiously.
We've been doing an endless amount of ranting and roasting of the terrible design of Sonic the Hedgehog in the recently released trailer. Since the release, the internet has been ripping the trailer to shreds, prompting the movie's director to announce a design change of our little hedgehog friend.
Honestly we're still pretty skeptical that the redesign will be any good, and clearly the rest of the internet feels similarly - people have been redesigning Sonic with their own edits, and they're pretty terrifying...
TGIF, y'all! We'e finally made it through a week of Game of Thrones content, the horrifying Sonic trailer, and the general feeling that the world is completely f*cked. Congratulations! We definitely deserve this pleasant assortment of memes and 280 character jokes. Let's get this weekend going.
If you haven't had the, um, "pleasure" of viewing the new trailer for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, then we'll save you the trouble: basically, it looks cringey as hell and everyone on the internet is pretty angry about it. So much so that the official trailer on YouTube currently has well over 300,000 downvotes to about 200,000 upvotes.
Pretty dismal if you ask us, but then again, what else would you expect out of a movie that totally butchered our beloved little blue hedgehog friend?
