High Expectations Asian Father

It’s a popular stereotype that Asian parents want nothing but excellence from their children and I chuckled at the very first High Expectations Asian Father image macro I saw. It was the one where the overly critical father questioned how their child could have possible gotten a C when they were clearly an A-sian. Have a look at that image and a few more of our favourites from this meme after the jump.

Bzzzzzzzzzz: Funniest Vuvuzela Images

The vuvuzela has been a South African institution since the 90s. While they may sound like a horde of angry weaponized bees, vuvuzelas are a staple of the football world cup, a soundtrack for the tournament if you will. One local lass ripped her windpipe trying to blow into the device (perhaps sucking was her forte), players have complained the drone has messed with their concentration, and one broadcaster has added audio filters to dampen the constant blaring. In all seriousness, some commentators have likened the sound to an elephant passing gas or a cow being given a surprise enema, which in itself would be a funny sight.

It seems some of the ====<() madness has died down from Twitter unless for some reason you’re following @the_vuvuzela, but the vuvuzela is parping its way to memedom with funny image macros popping up on the 4chan boards. Have a look at some of them collected by Know Your Meme.
