Know Your Meme- "Dog Fort"

Know Your Meme

Dog Fort is a multi-paneled comic about a recon team of dog lobsters routinely checking in with a communications officer named Dog Fort. It started as just a single panel comic but was expanded later.
    In May 2010, Know Your Meme user Von Smallhousen found a Dog Fort entry (at the time only a single panel image) and created a comic using the Dog Fort and Red Lobster entries (they were created separately, Dog Fort for a contest on Cracked in June 2009, and Red Lobster was a photo taken of a corgi dressed as a lobster for Halloween in 2008). On November 5th, 2010, Dog Fort became a meme and became extremely popular. Dog Fort's blog and website is: www.ThisIsDogFort.org
I thought the comic was very entertaining.

I was very impressed with the Google Art Project. I really enjoyed being able to walk through some of the galleries of the biggest art museums in the world without actually having to be there. I loved being able to not only view some of the works of the art, but also viewing the actual rooms and how the galleries are set up. The architecture of these museums are very intriguing. I liked being able to navigate on my own through the rooms or being able to just switch through the paintings if I wanted to. I especially loved finding famous paintings that I have heard about in other classes or that are really famous, like The Starry Night, by Vincent Van Gogh which is located in the MoMA in New York City.

Know Your Meme- "Challenge Accepted"

Know Your Meme

“Challenge Accepted” is a series of four-pane comics depicting real life situations where the character has to face   a highly difficult or dangerous task and chooses to embrace the near-impossible challenge against all odds. It is thought to be originated on Bungie's Flood Forums in a thread titled "When your teacher tells you" in November 2010. Before the meme was started, the statement "Challenge Accepted" was used on the TV sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" as Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris) often takes on almost impossible challenges that his friends bring up as jokes. 
The joke is now on Tumblr and Funny Junk as well. It has become exceedingly popular in December and January on Google.
