16 Of The Best Blinking Eye Guy Memes

It is safe to say that memes have taken over our world.

You can go to twitter or any other social media site and type in something, and 99.9% of the time a meme or GIF will already be out there.

As many memes as there are, we tend to pick one and blow it up. Memes come in waves, and we make them famous.

I mean people literally make "meme calendars" to show what memes are the most popular in which month. It's actually pretty hilarious.

The reason why we love memes so much is because they are relatable. Memes are always paired with some sort of situation or quote, and if we relate we share it.

The most recent meme that has taken over our timelines, is the "blinking eye guy." His name is Drew Scanlon, and he is the new internet sensation. The GIF was taken from a show called Unprofessional Fridays that was filmed in 2013. In an interview with The Guardian, Scanlon said that he doesn't even remember filming the video.

When asked about how he was feeling about having his face plastered all over the internet, Scanlon explained, "I like what memes can do for people. They’re such fun, throwaway things I see. These memes have been generally positive...It’s not like I have a say in what the internet does with a GIF of my face, but I’m pleased to see people are enjoying it."

I am pretty much obsessed with these tweets, so I have gathered all of my favorites:

I think I can speak for most of us when I say I have never related to a GIF/meme more.

Thank you for your service, Drew Scanlon.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
