Hey, all you cool cats and kittens!
Who doesn’t love a good meme? In a time when we’re stuck at home and worried about COVID-19, memes are helping to keep the internet generation entertained and laughing. You know what’s also doing that? Netflix’s new documentary series, Tiger King. It’s all we’ve been seeing on our timelines over the past few weeks, and we can’t blame everyone for being obsessed with it because we are too! The whole world of Joe Exotic is both fascinating and crazy, and we can’t seem to get enough! That’s why we felt the need to write an article dedicated to the series and all its glory.
Here are just some of our favourite Tiger King tweets and memes!
So catchy

We can’t thank Caleb Jaxin enough for introducing this song and dance to our lives. You wouldn’t believe how often we here at TenEighty HQ have been practicing it. (While social distancing in our own homes, of course.)
A classic tale

Everyone remembers reading this as a child, right?

We want to know who actually believes Carole is innocent. There’s no way anyone does, and if you do, then you’re just plain wrong.
How are you so calm?!
This covid stuff is getting old. I'm dedicating the day to posting #TigerKing memes. pic.twitter.com/Dc7gnNiJy7

We think this meme perfectly sums up how we’d feel in that situation…
Also, can we talk about how Joe took the time to find a paramedic’s jacket while all this was going on? We guess you’ve gotta look the part, but SOMEONE HAD THEIR ARM BITTEN OFF BY A TIGER.
There’s a difference

1) Has anyone informed him how AirPods are meant to sit?
2) Is it bad that this is the least strangest thing we saw in the documentary?

This is pretty much everyone who watched the series.
We knew it!

Carole Baskin is responsible for every Disney character death that broke us when we were younger.

We really hope there’s someone out bold enough to quote this scene in a job interview.
(Also, can we talk about how Joe thought this would be a good thing to say in a campaign video?)
Such dedication

We love the dedication some Tiger King fans are showing. We mean, dressing up as Joe Exotic and painting a cow to look like a tiger? Amazing!
Such a classic
Idc I love these memes 😂 #TigerKing pic.twitter.com/RXXHW7RGrS

We love it when a classic meme gets updated, and this is no exception!

There were so many amazing lines in this series, but this one is definitely among our favourites. We wish we could be this petty.
Do you see the hypocrisy in this?

We hear what you’re saying, Carole, but we don’t think you understand it. Isn’t that lion in a cage? (And an incredibly small one at that.)
Why a bathtub?
Did I just watch an alleged hitman give an interview from a bathtub? #TigerKing pic.twitter.com/N68BAm0DR2

We think we’re all still wondering why this man decided to hold his interview while in the bathtub. Just when we thought things couldn’t get any weirder, this happened…
We know what you did, Carole Baskin…
We don’t think there will be a bigger Netflix phenomenon this year than Tiger King. We still have so many questions about everything, but there’s one thing we know: Carole Baskin definitely killed her husband and there’s no way you’ll convince us otherwise. There’s just too much evidence to deny it!
