The meme that made modern history. Gather your friends and get ready to storm Area 51 to save some aliens from the treachery of the U.S. government! The meme is a prime opportunity for group costumes with numerous roles to fill. You need aliens, guards, and of course, a couple Naruto runners going full speed to uncover whatever secrets the military base is keeping within. It's time to get intergalactic on these Halloween fools. They can't stop you all.

2. Ight Imma Head Out

Things just wouldn't feel right without a SpongeBob meme in the mix. Do you have a white shirt? And pants? A tie? And a TV remote? Boom. You got the basics. Bonus points for yellow face paint with holes drawn on and a big red chair in the background. This unstoppable meme is a golden opportunity for a cheap-but-totally-Instagramable Halloween photo op before you "head out" to the night's festivities.

3. Fat Thor

Fat Thor was one of the many sensations to come out of Marvel's Avengers: Endgame. It's the same Thor, only a few pounds heavier from too much time drinking beer on the couch playing video games. Though to be fair, you pretty much get to cope however you please when a genocidal sack of purple gelatin with a colorful glove wrecks your whole universe. Beer gut or no beer gut, Thor is still just as powerful, just as cool, just as godly.

4. I Just Took A DNA Test

Turns out this meme is 100 percent a solid costume idea. Born out of the lyrics to Lizzo's number one smash "Truth Hurts," the DNA Test meme is conveniently versatile and allows you to mold your costume into whatever you are 100 percent of. Include the lyrics anywhere (be it a shirt, hat, or via last-minute sharpie job), and you likely have a killer costume.

5. Kombucha Girl

Kombucha Girl, real name Brittany Broski, set the internet ablaze with a TikTok video of herself trying Kombucha for the first time.

Things you'll need: any black shirt, kombucha, and a top-notch facial expression game.

Chris Evans (aka Marvel's Captain America) with acrylic nails is so inspiringly American it deserves to be its own costume.

7. Shaking Mannequin Head

All it did was become an internet sensation, spawn a vicious fast food war, and completely sell out in a matter of days. Why shouldn't it be your Halloween costume, too? The demand for Popeye's chicken sandwiches is insatiably high, and the world is starving for the return of our hero. On October 31, be that hero.

9. Sorry To This Man

The Keke Palmer soundbite heard 'round the world. To pull off "Sorry To This Man," you'll need a blazer, some hoop earrings, and to tie your hair back into a bun. But most importantly, you have to not know who this man is, not to mention you have to be genuinely sorry about it.

10. Hot Ones

Idris Elba, Shaq, and Gordon Ramsay are your best bets for popularity. A bonus? You get to take chicken wings with you wherever you go. They're instrumental to the success of this lewk.

11. Cats
