These 50 TikTok Memes Might Make You Finally Stop Hating TikTok

Once upon a time, Vine was the annoying social media tool of choice for people to share short-form video clips of jokes, memes, funny scenarios, magic tricks, visual illusions, or whatever viral nonsense was popular at the time. Then, Vine went away and everyone pretty much started using Snapchat and Instagram's video feature.

But then people got tired of that for whatever reason, and a new widespread social phenomenon began, TikTok.

Sure, there are several memes about how lame TikTok is and how it stinks and how annoying a lot of folks on the platform are, but the same can be said of throngs of Twitter users who stan terrible music acts, or Instagram "influencers" who attack pseudo-philosophical ramblings with pictures of their asses and abs.

That being said, while TikTok's annoying-as-all-hell advertising campaigns and branding are enough to make you want to sit on your porch and scream "GET OFF MY LAWN!" to anyone who appears to be under the age of 22, there are some legit gems on the platform that you can't miss. Here are some absolute winners I've come across.

I wish I would've seen this live, but I'm thankful that someone was there to document this brilliant act of awkwardness.

Watching this now I'm thinking that I'd definitely be able to figure them out right away... but then again, I pronounced the word Colonel as "KALANELL" when I had to read aloud in class once.

And that was the day that little Jaden's social media obsession was born.

People are wondering just how in the heck the guy gets the milk inside the eggplant. There's a very easy explanation: magic, duh. That or a syringe.

Seriously, all other TikTokkers take notice (yes you need two "k's" otherwise it's "tokers").

How lame would it be if a 6'1 230 pound Eastern European man with two children who's nearing his mid 30s started taking up heely-ing?

I'm not going to comment on the message at all, but the delivery method was just wonderful. Excellent set up, 10/10.

The download and registration for TikTok was well worth it sir, bravo.

Every horrible memory from middle school and my freshman year just landed on my face right now.

Sure, this guy looks like he's just begging to be bullied by a linebacker who's totally gonna drive his dad's mustang on Saturday if he's in a good mood, but it's a great clip.

I feel just me saying anything about this video would get so many people angry but I think as the stance of a parent I can say this sorta thing is not OK.

I'm getting very on-point, unique poetry slam kinda performance vibes from this mixed with a non-regional news anchor dialect with a hint of the Marvelous Ms. Maisel.

Honestly, I don't think it'd hurt the sales of the newest iPhone one bit.

I don't care enough to solve this; I'm not going to even try but I know there's a bunch of nerds out there who will.

Seriously, those prices are pretty great but I could get even BETTER meals at WH or Cracker Barrel and they come with endless coffee too. But granted it does look amazing.

I love how there were audience members who had to tell him to unwrap a gift. Easily one of the best WWE unboxings of all time, next to Macho Man getting a snake for a wedding gift from Jake Roberts.

It was totally worth it, wasn't it? I couldn't help but bop to this after listening multiple times in a row.

But not when you translate the name of the meme into French and slap him in a stereotypical Parisian situation. Just look at him and that little Eiffel tower!

It's hard to top someone taking their dog to a build-a-bear workshop so they can customize their own plushy experience.

Seriously, this guy created a bumping beat just so he could be a fake Gucci and Fendi baller in Thailand. I'm in love.

Please tell me that's some camera trickery going on and these kids really weren't putting their craniums at risk from falling luggage and potted shrubbery.

The fake-out. The synchronization, and the pure joy of top athletes getting in on such a fun little stunt is heartwarming.

I know he's featured up earlier in this article but I had to include this track that he made out of noises from random things in his hotel room. So good.

The punchline in this one is everything. At first I was all like, "what's with this dude's awkward faces?" and then I was like, "HAH!" Worth it.

"Do you ever feel like we're the food being microwaved, dude? By the universe because of global warming?"

And while everyone's usually full of crap, I have to say that this one is a recipe for viral success. Cats almost always are.

Are pretty great too, especially when they're attached to a gag as well thought-out and fun as this one.

However, it's so stupid and goes so well to whatever track this is that it's undeniably hilarious. I have no idea what I just saw but I adore it.

How can you not love that? Sure, his pale face might haunt your dreams, but it's still a great gag. And that's all that matters, darn it.

Hits a little too close to home. And he was able to hit upon a universal human truth, just with some glasses of water.

Maybe don't puff your chest out so much?

Although I have a sneaking suspicious someone tucked that little guy in bed. Still impressive it just sat there to watch birds, though.

Props for using soap instead of a banana peel.

Clickety clacky, he's at the top of the mappy.

It's worse than re-arranging the letters on a keyboard.

And she did all of that in high heels.

Just look at his face. Either that or he knows he's being framed for the approval of internet strangers.

Pretty inventive way to animate a scene, I have to admit.

And now I want to go to that restaurant.

But maybe she should change up her practice regimen. Just saying.

Either that or it's the spawn of satan.

It's not every day you get a moving and powerful scene, with a cover of a classic song, all mixed into one. Wonderful.

But if she doesn't want to be on TikTok, dude... maybe don't put her on there.

Sometimes you can see the magical wonder of mother nature on the platform. I mean butterflies are pretty great.

But at least it's funny, right?

And it will give you diabetes.

And although you're waiting for the jump scare, admit it, you jumped.
