FRIDAY MEME: THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA GUY

About

The Great Wall of China Guy is a nickname given to an Asian man who accidentally photobombed a Redditor’s photograph of the famous fortification. Upon its submission to Reddit, the image inspired several dozens of photoshopped parodies overnight.

On November 11th, 2013, Redditor Hipsterthug submitted a photograph he took of the Badaling section of the Great Wall with an Asian tourist partially blocking the foreground to the /r/funny subreddit in a post titled “I tried to take a picture of the Great Wall.” The photograph was quickly declared the next “In the Way Guy” and met by several photoshopped instances in the comments.

video game gifs

a few weeks back i posted a video game logic meme, while looking those up, i kept coming across funny gifs. i ended up with enough of them to warrant their own meme.  if you get mad that this page takes too long to load, think about how long it must have taken me to upload them on our 28.8 kbps modem at work. (editor's note: it took about 1 hour and 15 minutes to upload)
