14 Internet Memes We're Totally Obsessed With Using

2. ". . .Said No One Ever"

The runner-up and what is sure to be claimed by most to be deserving of the #1 spot is "Said No One Ever", one of the definitive memes of all time. Its origin is of accidental proportions, being tweeted for the first time in 2010 by Twitter user @donni and embraced by the worldwide public since then, nearly four years later. Often used to express disapproval towards any particular subject, "Said No One Ever" has persevered over the last few years on every branch of social media networking. Sites like 4chan and Reddit eat the meme up, producing new content from the famous catchphrase every minute of every day. Its publicity doesn't end there, as Facebook and Twitter spread share after share in an attempt to lengthen its already endless life cycle. Anyone who has grown familiar with the term "meme" automatically knows or has heard of "Said No One Ever." It's been elevated to such a height that almost no other meme is used more frequently or more urgently. Its reach far exceeds its own grasp in point of fact, driving itself out of the internet world and on into ours, influencing our responses when approached with moments we don't necessarily admire.
