This week saw the beginning of the "Office Thoughts" meme, which we hope sticks around for a while, as well as a Tumblr's worth of Paul Akin memes called "From Talking to Doctors." Here, we recap all the best memes that came out this week, including our favorite Overly Attached Girlfriend and Most Interesting Man in the World.
Sarah Palin may have had her hands full with 'Saturday Night Live' sketches, but it looks like this Republican Vice Presidential Candidate will have something more technologically advanced to contend with: Photoshop.
After Paul Ryan was announced as Romney's running mate, the internet of course went wild. Our favorite Paul Ryan meme so far is the Paul Ryan Gosling meme.
We first saw this meme while browsing Reddit at the offi -- err, while we were browsing Reddit not at the office. Seriously, we only do work at the office and not say, waste our time calculating how many times we could go to the bathroom without raising suspicion.
The Olympics has given us plenty to work with to create fun and hilarious memes. The London Games gave us a sullen McKayla Maroney, a soccer team full of Waldos and adorably childlike swimmers. In the midst of all this fun, NASA's Curiosity Rover landed on Mars, sparking a whole wave of memes.
What better topic for a meme than the 2012 Summer Olympics? Not only is the Queen of England herself being turned into a meme, but it seems that all of our favorite memes are getting in on the action.
It may seem as if the Olympics are taking over - we featured two Olympics memes just this week! But don't worry, for today's funniest memes of the week, we've included some of our favorite memes about other topics as well. Futurama Fry is as funny as ever and you have to see an adorable toddler's reaction to the Grandma finds the Internet meme.
Take a look at the best memes from the internet of this week, below.
As always, we have the best gifs to sum up your week. If you're anything like us, you're all over the Olympic coverage. So we've got some special Olympics gifs just for you. If you missed it, we have gifs of the London Games here and we also have reaction gifs - how you possibly felt while watching those memorable Olympic moments.
Take a look at all the best gifs of the week below.
As you may have seen on TheFW earlier this week, divers look hilarious while diving. From far away their form may look lovely, their water entrance precise. But just look a little closer and you'll see what we see -- the absolutely ridiculous faces divers make in the air.
After sharing our findings with you, we saw that Reddit picked up on it and made it just a little bit better. Take a look at the Photoshopped Olympic divers making funny faces - while on the toilet.
You may have seen our photos showing what Olympic divers really look while diving. Don't be fooled by the elegant turns and precise finish into the water -- their faces really look insane! We're guessing it's a combination of intense concentration and gravity doing its work.
These pictures are hilarious on their own, but imagine our surprise when we saw our post Photoshopped on Reddit!
