THIS IS JUST A TRIBUTE
State Of The Union Hecklers, The 'Batman' Font And This Week's Other Best Memes, Ranked
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 the “Batman” font, TikTok's little green bear and Boebert and Greene heckling Biden during the State of the Union address.
3. The “Batman” Font
The meme
Each new Batman film franchise comes with its own set of knickknacks: villains, costumes, cool vehicles and the things that gets everyone the most excited — typefaces. This website let fans of Matt Reeves’s new "The Batman" starring Robert Pattinson and Zoë Kravitz — which has gotten a mostly warm reception — the ability to customize the film’s typeface – a quick distraction during tumultuous times.

2. The Little Green Bear
The meme
There are always new trends and filters cropping up on TikTok, but in the past week, one in particular has stood out: a filter that places a little dancing green bear in the surroundings you're filming, and you can move him and resize him as you so desire. The most prevalent meme born of the filter is people trying to make the little green bear as small as possible — and then, in some cases, flipping the meme on its head and making him as large as possible. And folks, it’s good.
@literallyonmywiener if someone makes a stuffed animal version im going to cry #lbgtq #littlegreenbear ♬ where is the green bear - jordan simpson
The music that accompanies the filter, by the way, is the a cappella section of Tenacious D's iconic 2002 song "Tribute." (In case you either didn't know or are younger: Tenacious D is a comedy rock duo comprised of Jack Black and Kyle Gass.)
I' gonna be honest: I have no idea who this little green bear is, where he came from or why he exists. All I know is that I love him.

1. Boebert And Greene Heckling Biden
The meme
Congresswomen Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene made a spectacle of themselves during President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Tuesday. In one unfortunate instance, Boebert heckled Biden right as he talked about the death of his son.
Reuters’s senior staff photographer Evelyn Hockstein captured the two Republican lawmakers interrupting the proceedings by chanting 'Build The Wall."

Boebert and Taylor Greene’s antics were ripe for mocking as scores of people on Twitter took Hockstein’s photograph and added a snarky caption, excoriating the Congresswomen for their ill-mannered behavior at the event.
