And the meme of June 2021 goes to…

While For the Better, Right? is not technically a prequel meme, since neither Anakin nor Padme actually say the lines in Attack of the Clones, this didn't stop the format from becoming one of the most popular and flexible memes from Star Wars to ever go viral with variations relying on the "feel" for the meme rather than its original caption. Talented redraws and creative out-of-the-box memeing were what got For the Better, Right to the number one spot with 29 percent of the votes.

Look What They Need to Mimic a Fraction of Our Power

Unable to quite mimic the power of the omnipresent Think, Mark, our last month's winner, Look What They Need to Mimic a Fraction of Our Power from the hit Invincible series had a decent showing on Reddit and Facebook with many creative takes: securing second place with 14 percent of the votes.

Saddam Hussein's Hiding Place

A late addition to the list of contenders, Saddam Hussein's Hiding Place went ultra-viral just before the end of the month, with the red figure of the Iraqi dictator hiding in many-a-meme. Strong Loss vibes and the potential for quality shitposting earned Saddam Hussein and his hidey-hole the third place on the list with 13 percent of the votes.

Chaosposting

In fourth place with 12 percent of the votes, we have the one-dimensional obsession with killing Chaos that characterizes Jack, the protagonist of the new Final Fantasy spin-off, in "We're here to kill Chaos!". Jack and his unhealthy fixation have been the laughingstock of 4chan's /v/ and Twitter for the past month, providing endless memes and a quality exploitable to boot. Enough reading — we have Chaos to kill and memes to post about it.

Samsung Sam

In fifth place, we have Samsung Sam with 9 percent of the votes. Much like many before her, Sam became a seasonal waifu for social media, failing to show any lasting power past her two weeks in the spotlight. Could an official release reignite her popularity?

There Is No Such Thing as a Coincidence

William Knight has been hypnotizing TikTok with his striking stare, mesmerizing mannerisms and talks of cryptids and conspiracies since December 2020, but he didn't really go viral until June when a Twitter user shared a video of him. The last weeks of June have been filled with great edits of Knight as video game NPCs, earning him sixth place on the list with 9 percent of the votes.

Zoomer humor catchphrase What the Dog Doin' from TonyBakerComedy's classic Vine, Dream's questionable music video "Mask" that spawned the Normal Pills meme and Batman's unexpected controversy surrounding his refusal not only to kill people but to perform oral sex have all had their viral moments in June, wrapping up our list on our list with 8 percent, 5 percent and 2 percent votes, respectively.

Thank you for voting and see you next month!

Glad I'm into Prequel Memes and other Star Wars content
How has For the Better Right managed to perform better than other templates
Saddam (blew up late in the month) and the two Dream Mask ones were good contenders

Chaoschads, we lost…

Anyone of these could have won if it was weaker month for memes. And I think Saddam could have waited for the next month since it blew up really late, it's still all over the place together with F&F family memes.

There is no such thing as a coincidence.
