What heroes of famous memes look like now
Trying to hold back ... next to a beautiful classmate (Michael McGee)
The Not-So-Decent Meme was born in 2014 when Reddit user aduk_ala posted a photo titled " trying to hold a bunch next to a pretty girl. "
Here's what Mike McGee says in the picture.
Well, the guy who took this picture was a good friend of mine ... and he knew I could get that face anytime I wanted ... When he decided to take a funny picture on Twitter, he just asked me to.
Disaster girl (Zoe Roth)
The iconic photograph emerged back in 2004 when Zoe's father Dave Roth captured her watching firefighters trying to put out a fire two blocks from their home in Mebane, North Carolina. In November 2007, Dave entered and won a contest for a not-so-famous photo magazine. But after the photo was published ... Since then, Zoya's photo has become very often used for various photojams and demotivators.
According to Zoya herself, the picture did not bring her either fame or money.
Harold Hides Pain (Andreas Arato)
The meme was born in September 2011 when a stock photo with a Dreamtime watermark was posted on the Facepunch forum. In September 2018, Andreas Arbat hosted a TedTalk in Kiev, Ukraine, where he told the story of his life as a “meme hero”.
Flashing White Guy (Drew Scanlon)
The man who starred in this iconic meme is Drew Scanlon. The GIF is taken from a live stream filmed in 2013 when Drew Scanlon was a video producer on the popular gaming site Giant Bomb. During one of the weekly shows, Unprofessional Fridays, Scanlon watched editor-in-chief Jeff Gerstmann play Starbound, a 2D adventure game. And he played extremely badly, he was still talking all sorts of nonsense.
Kayode Evumi
The meme is taken from the 2016 BBC mini-series Hood Documentary, in which the character, played by actor Kayode Evumi, points a finger at his head and smiles, saying that he finds the woman “beautiful” because “she has brains. "
Sweating Jordan Peele
The famous gif / photo was born in September 2013, after the premiere of the 3rd season of Key and Peele, which aired in the USA. The episode from which the meme arose includes a scene where the character played by Jordan Peel is sweating nervously in response to his girlfriend arguing with him about his internet habits.
School boy in the swamp (Igor Nazarov)
This snapshot of 16-year-old Russian schoolboy Igor Nazarov went viral back in 2016 after he took a photo shoot that captured him at his desk in a suit in the middle of a swamp. The photo was taken for a $ 277 photo contest. He even won (but this is not certain))) The most important thing is that this is one of the few world memes that the Runet presented.
