Memes weren't even "a thing" a few years ago, but now they're some of the most beloved and shared content on the internet. The fact that these fun little pictures and sayings get everyone talking ONline, means that if you dress as a popular meme for Halloween, you'll have everyone talking OFFline! Here are 10 DIY costumes that will definitely help your Halloween celebration "go viral!"

1. Dos Equis Most Interesting Man

Every man inherently thinks they're the most interesting man, but statistically that's impossible. At least if you dress as the Dos Equis "Most Interesting Man In The World," you'll come close (and have built in one-liners all night)! Here's what we put together:

I don't always wear a costume, but when I do...

2. Gersberms Girl

Who hasn't gotten super stinkin' excited about Goosebumps books?! Especially the choose your own adventure ones! If you want to recapture your socially awkward youth (which you have hopefully subsequently grown out of), then going as "Ermahgerd Girl" this Halloween is a great choice. Here's our take on it:

For the "books," we simply printed out pictures of Goosebumps book covers and taped them to the front of old VHS cases. Note: This is because it added to the fun DIY element, not because people who work here don't own Goosebumps books. Trust us.

ALSO, if you choose this costume you must try this "Ermahgerd Translator!" It transforms ordinary language erntr merm sperk (into meme speak).

3. Success Kid

That look says it all. We heard the kid is actually making that face because he just defiantly ate a fistful of sand, but this image has since come to symbolize domination. This can apply to a moment in your personal life, your professional life, and definitely in your Halloween costume life. Here's ours:

This costume looks so spot-on because we made the head using our custom mask creator! From there all we needed to do was toss on a white baseball style t-shirt with green sleeves. SUCCESS. 

4. Overly Attached Girlfriend

Those...eyes...can't...escape...the crazy stare. Seriously, though, how fun would it be to go around creeping everyone out all Hallow's Eve simply by throwing on this facial expression and a t-shirt? Haven't mastered the creepy overly-attached stare? Don't worry. There's an app for that. Errr...a mask creator for that:

5. Nyan Cat

You know when a person is a little shallow, but they're super cute, so you let it slide? Nyan cat is the meme equivalent of this phenomenon. The lyrics may not be philosophical ( "Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow," on repeat for 3.5 minutes) but gosh DARNIT is that thing adorable.

6. Socially Awkward Penguin

Socially awkward penguin is so endearing. Perhaps it's because he's cute, but more likely it's becase we can all identify with a few of his awkward moments. A great way to wriggle out of any awkward Halloween moment, would be to dress as the Socially Awkward Penguin - get out of jail   awkward free pass!

7. Condescending Wonka

Mr. Wonka has been cooped up in the chocolate factory too long and forgotten social niceties, and we LOVE it! This costume would give you a great excuse to be able to make fun of lesser costumes all night, with a smart/sophisticated air about you. "Oh, you got your costume at a thrift store? It looks like it."

You KNOW you have made it as a meme, when your status goes from "ordinary household cat," to a trademarked character! Every Halloween party needs a token "miser," so all in good fun, this year it can be you! Who knows, you may even "no, no, no" your way to costume contest victory! (Especially if you go the extra mile and use our cat makeup kit.)

Futurama aired its series finale this year, so a great way to pay a fitting tribute to this smart and witty show is to go as the Fry "not sure if..." meme. The best part is, it's super easy! Simply snag one of our officially licensed Futurama Fry costumes and SQUINT!

10. Rage Face Guy

Woah. It would be WAY too painful to maintain a face that looked anything like that for any significant period of time. Thankfully, there's no need! You can have all the dramatic and hilarious impact of this angry little MS Paint character with none of the face-contortion effort! GETTTT OOONNEEEEEEEE!
