Something WILL Happen!”: The Never-Ending Apocalypse Meme
Internet humor thrives on patterns, and few are as hilariously predictable as the annual declarations of doom in videos like “Why [Year] Will Be The Worst Year Ever.” In this meme, shared by @wowiewoohoo, the internet’s obsession with catastrophizing gets the perfect visual treatment. With thumbnails proclaiming every year from 2022 to 2025 as the “worst year ever,” it’s a reminder that the apocalypse is always just one click away.
This meme captures the absurdity of our collective fixation on disaster predictions while poking fun at how often we fall for it.
Breaking Down the Meme
The humor in this meme lies in its escalating absurdity. Each thumbnail features dramatic, over-the-top visuals designed to trigger our worst fears—crying faces, VR goggles, and dystopian landscapes.
Here’s why it works:
Repetition as Comedy: Seeing the same apocalyptic format reused year after year drives home the ridiculousness of it all.
Relatable Nostalgia: We’ve all seen (and maybe even clicked on) videos like these, feeding into the cycle of doomscrolling.
Subtle Commentary: The meme critiques how content thrives on fear, often recycling the same themes to capture attention.
Why This Meme Resonates
The meme taps into a universal truth about internet culture: bad news sells, and predictions of doom are irresistible. The exaggerated thumbnails mirror our own anxieties, while the meme’s tone encourages us to laugh at how easily we’re drawn into the drama.
Here’s what makes it timeless:
Self-Awareness: It’s funny because it’s true. We know these videos are often overblown, but we keep watching anyway.
Universal Appeal: Whether it’s 2022, 2023, or 2025, the “worst year ever” trope speaks to our shared dread of the unknown.
Chudjak Energy: While not explicitly featuring Chudjak, the meme embodies his skeptical, frustrated spirit—perfectly summarizing our collective eye-roll at these repetitive claims.
