With all of the recent Jersey Shore memes circulating recently, now is a better time than ever to commemorate on one of the greatest gifts of all time - Jersey Shore. A show about eight Italian strangers living in a summer house took the world by storm in December 2009, and humanity as a whole hasn't been the same since. Here are 24 reasons why Jersey Shore was God's gift to humanity.

1. Their intros.

"I'm going to the Jersey Shore, bitch!" -Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi

2. How they all became fast friends over one commonality - a love of alcohol.

3. How drunk they got for the sole purpose of entertaining America.

“There are no cell phones, no TV, and you can’t read. You can’t write or pass notes. You can’t listen to music, you can’t do anything. It’s kind of like being in jail for two months—and people wonder why all we do is drink! It’s because there’s nothing else to do! It passes the time and makes it fun." -Snooki

4. The anthem that everybody found themselves singing at one point or another.

5. The endless amount of drunk fights.

6. The greatest ultimatum of all time.

She's got one of two options, which seem like the same option...?

7. The endless amount of drunk dancing.

8. When Snooki fought Angelina, and Ronnie took it upon himself to commentate.

9. "Cabs are here!"

10. When they went to Italy, and Pauly still shouted his favorite phrase.

11. Snooki and Jenni.

They went on to have their own spinoff once Jersey Shore ended. They're still friends today. Their kids are even friends! Can you say besties?

12. All of the drama that was Ron and Sam.

13. The obsession with JWoww's "boobies."

14. Deena.

15. When Pauly was mad at the girls for being mad at him for being mad at them.

Pissed!

16. When Snooki got so drunk she couldn't find the beach...from the boardwalk.

17. When Angelina made the very unfortunate mistake of touching Pauly.

18. Snooki and Deena.

19. When Mike attacked the wall.

20. When Snooki got so drunk that she got arrested - after she found the beach, of course.

21. When JWoww broke up with her then-boyfriend but didn't want to tell him that she was seeing a new guy.

Said new guy's name was Roger, and Pauly couldn't help but make the most perfect joke.

22. The relationship that made us all believe in love - Vinny and Pauly.

23. And how they weren't at all embarrassed to express their love for each other.

24. And how at the end of the day, they all became real friends who loved each other.
