See The Winner Of June 2024's Meme Of The Month!
And the meme of June 2024 goes to …
With the tiniest of margins – just three votes! – it's Jigsaw's Final Challenge that steals that victory royale and becomes this June's "Meme of The Month." The format started off on Instagram back in May and reached TikTok and X by June, where it developed into Jigsaw creating the most devious of traps that could send anyone into panic and consider giving up. His ultimate trick was securing those 15 percent of your votes, so congrats to everyone who voted for this silly little maniac.
Let's Go Gambling / Aw Dangint
Trailing behind with just a three-vote difference, we have the ultimate gambling experience in a meme package, the Let's Go Gambing / Aw Dangit meme. A Flipnote animation of a stick man losing at slots again and again went viral on TikTok and YouTube, inspiring not only simpler memes that used the soundbite, but also a copypasta and even several fan animations. Despite not hitting the jackpot, Aw Dangit managed to get (almost) 15 percent of your votes this June, and that's still a win.
Hawk Tuah Girl
In a surprising turn of events, Hawk Tuah didn't manage to become a meme of the month, but still, it's not the sound we will be forgetting any time soon. The clip of one Haliey Welch making the sound and spitting on that thang got so extremely viral that Hawk Tuah and the woman behind it permeated every space both virtual and real, getting into merchandise, concerts, sports broadcasts, interviews — everywhere, really. 9.5 percent of you loved the concept of hawk tuahing and spitting on that thing and putting this viral phenomenon in the third place on our list.

Freakbob / Freakybob
You know who else likes to get 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂? No, it's not what Muscle Man would say, it's Freakbob! Everyone's favorite 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 sponge was born when SpongeBob SquarePants met the Freaky memes trend, which itself is rooted in Papyrus Irony, which is rooted in Hood Irony — contact your local Instagram meme plug for more information. 8.5 percent of you picked up the phone when Freakbob was calling, securing the fourth place for the freaky sponge.
Miiverse Yeah!
Wrapping up our top five is Miiverse Yeah!, the meme destined to replace the like button on X. The "Like" equivalent of Nintendo's discontinued Miiverse, the Yeah! button went viral on X in the wake of the platform removing the ability to view other people's Likes, providing people with a way of making their Likes public again. Surprising utility and bonus points for nostalgia, it's no surprise that 7 percent of you deemed Miiverse Yeah worthy of the title.
Not everyone is destined for greatness, but nobody deserves to disappear into oblivion either, so here are the memes that didn't manage to make it into the top five: King Baldwin IV silencing the unworthy so that worthy could speak (7%), Bad Ape's dramatic Oh No! (6.5%), a sprinkle of AI breathing new life into classic vines (6%), "Gyatt for Gyatt", the brainrot remix of Band4Band (6%), the GOTY contender Man the Game (5%), Momoi from Blue Archive making amazing covers in Oh My Gotto trend (4.5%), Justin Timberlake being crushed about ruining the world tour (3.5%), finding that special someone who matches your freak (2.5%), wanting fun but finding soul instead (2.5%), and hot men who look like rodents (2%).
Thank you for voting and see you next month!
