And the meme of September 2021 goes to…

<

Among many Deltarune memes that flooded the feeds after the release of Chapter 2 of the acclaimed video game, Kris, Where Are We?! was indubitably the most popular one, despite the line never actually being said in the game. Capturing the very dynamic between Kris and Susie, the format spawned hundreds if not thousands of memes that send the duo to every possible dimension and beyond. Ultimately, it raked in 38 percent of your votes and became a clear winner.

People Who Don't Know vs. People Who Know

In second place with 17 percent of the votes, we have Mr. Incredible and his traumatized doppelganger. Starting slow as a version of The Teacher's Copy format in November 2020, the format struck gold after the memorable caption People Who Don't Know vs. People Who Know came along. Did you know that it's not actually Mr. Incredible on the right but rather his "reverse toonified" version?

Ankha Zone

In third place with 15 percent of the votes, Animal Crossing's Ankha "strolls" proudly. The definitive hornypost magnet of the month, Ankha Zone was created by famous NSFW animator and artist ZONE-sama, inspiring bait-and-switches, fan art and many Google requests, and occupying every platform from Twitter to TikTok at once.

Skeletor Facts

Bringing the facts nobody asked for, Skeletor Facts sought great popularity on Reddit and Facebook in September. The way Skeletor runs away after dropping the information bomb, leaving you alone to process it, makes the explosion of horrid realization all that more powerful and enjoyable. Fourth place, 12 percent of the votes.

This Is Where I Watched My Parents Die, Raphael

The format in which Batman performs some casual trauma dumping onto Raphael did not first appear in September – or in 2021. In fact, the panel from the March 2016 issue of Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has been used in memes since November 2017, with the addition of the phrase "Cowabummer!" sending it to a whole other level in March 2020. And yet in 2021, the format soared to new heights as users started replacing Raphael and Batman with other characters, and a PaRappa the Rapper version becoming so popular it basically split off into its own format. Fifth place with 11 percent of the votes.

Wrapping up our list, we have Devious Licks, a TikTok trend that had school students stealing stuff from school bathrooms (with some instead bringing stuff in Angelic Yields trend) (4%), another drawing format in Iced Latte With Breast Milk that again had horny people perfecting their drawing of large breasts (3%) and Midwest Emo Intro Parodies which made cringy TikTok stories somewhat more tolerable by turning them into emo songs (1%).
