Daniel Craig As European Countries, 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're finding love "the old-fashioned way," reacting to the new "Saltburn" movie and attributing Scandinavian countries to Daniel Craig's different looks.
3. Deleting dating apps
The Meme
The colder months are what we like to call cuffing season, so the Tinders and Bumbles of the world are currently getting a lot of play as folks look to shack up for a long winter's nap. That being said, the experience most folks have with those apps is a bit of a mixed bag, so it's no surprise to see a delightful meme take hold where people consider the other methods that the media has led us to believe we can use to meet potential partners.
Examples
deleting dating apps because i want to meet someone the old fashioned way (he thinks he’s an elf and overheard me singing at work in his quest to find his real dad)

Deleting dating apps because I want to meet someone the old fashioned way (he gets drugged/hypnotised in my Swedish cult and has sex with me on the floor surrounded by naked women copying my moaning sounds and then they all start to push him into me harder)

2. 'Saltburn' reactions
The Meme
Emerald Fennell's thriller-comedy "Saltburn," starring Jacob Elordi, Barry Keoghan and Rosamund Pike, hit theaters this month — and has since become one of the most divisive movies of the year. Some people absolutely hate it, some people absolutely love it, and both sides have made memes about it.

1. Daniel Craig
The Meme
The most beautiful thing about art is how everything can be interpreted in any number of ways. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and that might count for double with the invention of shitposting on the internet.
A few different photos of Daniel Craig have been used to create a new meme, where you simply project onto his vastly differing styles whichever nouns you deem funny. It could be four different people you know, four different countries or simply using one or all of the Daniel Craigs to make a joke. It's so versatile, and that's what makes it so good! This started as a EU-centric meme, but is clearly open enough for anyone to use.

And if you're hungry for more memes, here's the last edition of "The Week's Best Memes," which dealt with Andre 3000's surprising new music, OpenAI firing and then rehiring its CEO and a ridiculous line from the new "Madame Web" trailer.
