Scumbag Steve

Scumbag Steve is a viral internet meme from January 2011 featuring a photograph of Blake Boston, a teenager from Massachusetts, wearing a sideways Red Sox cap and a fur-collared coat. The image macro format uses top and bottom text to depict a fictional character who engages in selfish, inconsiderate, or unethical social behaviors, serving as the negative counterpart to "Good Guy Greg." Although the meme initially caused Boston significant distress and harassment, he eventually embraced the notoriety, leveraging the fame to launch a rap career and make public appearances at events like ROFLcon.

Captured mid-laugh while holding a drink, the image embodies smugness and mockery, making it a popular reaction for conveying disbelief at absurdity or sarcasm. The meme gained widespread traction starting in late 2017 with Photoshop edits and saw a major resurgence on Reddit in August 2020, where it became a staple for mocking failures, mocking stupidity, or reacting to ironic situations.

Fat JD Vance

The "Fat JD" meme is a viral internet caricature of U.S. Vice President JD Vance that depicts him with an exaggeratedly round face, widened eyes, and long, curly brown hair. Originating in February 2025 following a contentious meeting where Vance repeatedly asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, "Did you even say thank you?", the image became a symbol of mockery regarding his diplomatic conduct and perceived petulance. In a notable turn of events in October 2025, Vance leaned into the ridicule by dressing as the "Fat JD" character for Halloween, donning a curly wig and reenacting the meme in social media videos.

Ali G

Ali G is a satirical fictional character created and performed by English comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, portrayed as a faux-streetwise, middle-class white youth from Staines, England, who adopts a stereotypical British inner-city urban culture, particularly through exaggerated Multicultural London English, Jamaican Patois, and hip-hop influences. He first emerged as the "voice of da yoof" on Channel 4's The 11 O'Clock Show in 1998, conducting interviews with unsuspecting public figures, politicians, and celebrities, often exposing their prejudices and ignorance through his deliberately ignorant and offensive questions.
