Here at Digg, we try our best to cover the most important and confounding memes that come across the timeline. But the web is littered with tons of great memes that never quite hit the mainstream and instead just bounce around the weird corners of Twitter or Reddit. Enter our recurring feature, Memes, Ranked.

This week, we've got a questionable bobblehead, Jimmy Fallon's interview subjects, people spelling "chauffeur" and reactions to King Charles's new portrait.


4. Caitlin Clark bobblehead

The Meme

Caitlin Clark made her WNBA debut for the Indiana Fever this week, and she did okay. The unbelievable amount of hype surrounding her has raised the status and notoriety of the league, like a rising tide that lifts all boats. But the bobblehead of her that you can preorder... looks really bad. Comically bad, like they were trying to mess it up on purpose.

Examples


Jared Russo



3. Jimmy Fallon interview

The Meme

This one's pretty straightforward. X user @RANDOMC_L_EVENT shared a photo of late-night host Jimmy Fallon facing an empty chair, wrote "give Jimmy Fallon someone to interview," and people did.

2. How do you spell 'chauffeur'

The Meme

There's a viral TikTok sound going around that asks how to spell the word "chauffeur," only to then immediately spurn the person who can deliver the requested knowledge. But as it turns out, people aren't particularly interested in spelling here — the memetic sound works best when applied to other aspects of life. Just be prepared to get sworn at over and over again by a robotic country singer.

1. King Charles's portrait

The Meme

King Charles's first official portrait since his coronation was unveiled this week, and it has proven more controversial than you might expect. The painting, by artist Jonathan Yeo, shows the king dressed in the regal uniform of the Welsh Guards and... bathed in blood? Engulfed by the flames of hell? We're not sure exactly, but people had thoughts.
