About

Ironic Big Chungus Memes refers to a series of Big Chungus memes that present the character as an evergreen meme that does not subside in popularity over time. The ironic Big Chungus memes gained popularity on iFunny in mid-July 2019, spreading to Instagram and certain Reddit communities in the following months.

Spread

The ironic use of the character did not see significant spread until mid-July 2019.[3] Starting on July 13th, a number of iFunny users posted captioned GIFs and other memes referencing the character. For example, a July 14 post by iFunny user Need_For_Speedwagon gained over 40 smiles in three months (shown below, left).[4] A July 29th, post by user Twunk received over 110 smiles in three months (shown below, center).[5]

In the following months, the ironic format received wider spread outside of iFunny, with the memes being posted and reposted on Instagram[8] and such Reddit communities as /r/bruhfunny[9] and /r/okbuddyretard.[10] In some examples, Big Chungus theme song, created by YouTuber[11] Endigo on December 28th, 2018, has been used (video shown below).
