Demon Face is a meme that I've randomly come across over the past few months, so I decided to add it to the directory. There are several takes on it, but usually it is a guy quietly sitting in his chair in front of his computer. He then turns to the camera and makes an impossible and horrifying expression.
All made possible by Adobe After Effects.

Richard Krolewicz (flickr id boyshapedbox) is promoting a hilarious new photo meme: song chart. He also created a flickr group to track it.
Spotter: Neatorama.
We've all ordered from someone like Bon Qui Qui before, and, while she got the order wrong, we will always come back for more.
The King Burger skit was so outstanding and relevant that people have begun uploading their interpretations of the Bon Qui Qui rap. Mad TV would be wise to keep this character and skit going!

He stares, and stares, and stares some more. And then he scares the living daylights out of you. He is the Dramatic Lemur.
Andy Baio interviewed the maligned creator of Colin's Bear Animation (also known as Thanks For Nothing).
Did you actually turn it in with the "Thanks for nothing" ending?
The version I handed in listed my student number as well as the professor's name instead of "UOIT" and "Thanks for nothing" respectively. One of my friends wanted to post the video on YouTube because he thought a lot of people would enjoy it, so I made the "director's cut" to show my displeasure for having spent a considerable amount of money for what was actually very little.

Colin's hilariously defiant work has gone memetic in a big way, inspiring the creation of many remixes and recasts.
Boing Boing has been covering tasering incidents, and now points to a meme emerging from the John Kerry / University of Florida tasering incident. Already, there is the remix and the t-shirt.
Joey Moggie is getting a new sort of blog meme going: Emo Image Thursday.
The self-promotional "list of things about me" blog memes are somewhat cumbersome to read, and seem socially imposed at times. This image list concept could catch on in a big way as a reaction.
Joey has also been participating in Cats on Tuesday - perhaps this is where she originally got the idea. I think that others are going to join in. Watching the ecclectic image and video categories emerge in the blogging scene and social nets is going to be entertaining!
Without a doubt, the hottest video meme this week is Tay Zonday's Chocolate Rain. His amazing, Broadway-style performance is being remixed and remixed again.
