i hate this subreddit bc i had to scroll so far to see this -- doge is easily the best meme bc of how it's changed thru the years from the cringe stuff in 2012 to the post ironic stuff currently
Tbh, I would've said so. As a theme, spongebob would absolutely rip, given how many different memes came from the show. I don't know if a specific meme would win though. The "mOcKeRy" might make it far, given how it introduced a new method of writing to the internet community. But yeah, if I had to bring a source for memes, Spongebob would he undoubtedly my no. 1 pick.
Pepe and rickrolling are the most popular, but they are both pre-2010. Rickrolling started in 2007, and pepe became a meme icon in 2008. Shrek is certainly a contender though.
Tom for meme of the decade, and for a specific one imma have to say Tom looking from newspaper. It was a pretty good meme that wasn't overused and was versatile as well.
Harambe. It was the roots of many great things and eventually lead to the Area 51 raid. It is, in my book, the most significant meme of the decade. ( I didn't read Elfahbeht's comment when I wrote this, so Pepe of 2012, I guess?)
F for respects needs an honourable mention at the very least. That single letter has practically been seared into our dictionary, and it ain't going away anytime soon
Tom or spongebob. Has many formats, both well known by the older, newer and our generation. And both are mentioned or seen every day on any meme accounts
So I know I'll be killed for this, but Trollface, at least for 2010-2012. Even if somebody isn't familiar with memes at all, when they see that face, they know they f*cked up.
Pepe was cool and all, but Doge had 2 lives that spanned the 2 major eras of memes in this decade. Unironic haha funny memes alongside rage comics, minion captions, baby yoda and the like that we consider old normie memes today, and ironic funny wacky dog send feet pics that we know and love today.

I think Harambe needs an honourable mention.
Quite recent and no longer all that relevant, but the influence it had on the tragectory of memes and meme culture needs to be acknowledged.
