Advice animals have to be some of the most resilient memes out there. These memes developed out of Lolcats and had funny captions to match whatever animal featured. Advice Dog, Business Cat, Socially Awkward Penguin, and Confession Bear are all examples of advice animals.

The advice animals evolved into some common memes that still hold their ground today. They also spawned the idea that to understand some memes, the user had to have inside knowledge of the joke. These are essentially the memes that parents still send as e-mail attachments, but for a good reason, because they’re still funny and relatable.
