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 a zombie looking worse for wear, a new trend featuring Pepe the King Prawn and everyone losing their minds over a suspected killer.


3. '28 Years Later'

The Meme

The trailer for "28 Years Later," a sequel to post-apocalyptic horror "28 Days Later," dropped this week. People on X assumed that Cillian Murphy, who was in the original movie, is playing the emaciated zombie seen in the trailer, but sources have since confirmed that's not the case.

If I was Cillian, I'd be a little offended.

Nonetheless, the withered, decomposing form that appears in the form has provided plenty of meme fodder.

2. Pepe the King Prawn

The Meme

We all live through strange and embarrassing moments at some time or another, and it's fairly common for people to relive those instances over and over again inside their heads. This meme, featuring none other than Pepe the King Prawn, lets us all externalize those bizarre moments of personal discomfort and bemusement.

Does it make a lot of sense?

No, but it is cathartic.

1. Luigi Mangione

The Meme

It’s unlikely that I need to explain who Luigi Mangione is, considering he’s all anyone is talking about right now, but I’ll provide a quick refresher for those who have somehow managed to miss the news.

Last Wednesday, Brian Thompson, the CEO of health insurance company UnitedHealthcare, was shot dead on the street in New York. After a days-long manhunt, a suspect — 26-year-old Luigi Mangione — was taken into custody after being spotted in a Pennsylvania McDonald’s and later charged with murder.

While suspected killers aren’t usually at the top of people’s crush lists, Mangione’s apparent disdain for the health insurance industry, as well as his good looks, have won the hearts of many across America and beyond.

And if you're hungry for more memes, here's last week's edition of "The Week's Best Memes,", featuring the "F*** You" guy, festive "Juno" positions and people's reactions to unhooking a bra.

    I can put up with the misspellings, misleading headlines, hypocritical headlines and incomplete sentences on this website. Promoting violence is too far. Posts like this are why people feel violence is ok. Good bye digg.
