Some memes come and go in a week. But the classics? They stick around forever, and honestly, they only get funnier with time. You know the ones.
The memes that shaped how we talk to each other online, the ones your friends still send in group chats years later, and the ones that somehow perfectly describe a feeling no word in the dictionary could capture.
This collection is dedicated to exactly that: the most iconic memes of all time, curated by Meme, one of the most reliable comedy accounts on Instagram. If you've spent any time on the internet, you'll recognize most of these, and if you haven't seen them before, consider this your essential introduction to meme culture.
We've also pulled together a separate list of the funniest memes if you want something more current, and our one-liner jokes if you prefer your humor delivered fast.
But for now, scroll down, upvote the memes that have genuinely stood the test of time, and let us know which ones you still send to people today.

Expectation vs Reality Baby Edition
I am concerned about my reaction to babies. All I see is a noisy, angry, mucous-splattered creature which smells of sick and has a disproportionately large head. Everybody else is like 'Aw, so cute. Looks like mommy!' and I am left to ponder what it is that they are seeing and I am not. Kittens are cute. Puppies are cute. Babies are not. Am I a monster?
