After its pilot was released all the way back in 2007 as a Nicktoons short on Nickelodeon, Adventure Time finally began its journey in 2010 as an iconic Cartoon Network series that attracted audiences of all ages, despite being aimed at children.
Over its eight-year run, Adventure Time has garnered and maintained a large fanbase that is still active to this day thanks to the Distant Lands and upcoming Fionna And Cake spinoffs. Finn and Jake had a touching friendship and taught audiences real-life lessons with tons of laughs along the way. Here are some of the most hilarious Adventure Time memes that creative fans have made to remember their never-ending love for Finn, Jake, and friends.
7 A Sweet Slip Of The Tongue
There are a ton of idioms and sayings that are constantly thrown around in the English language, but sometimes it's important to always analyze one's words before the wrong thing slips out! Jake, of course, meant no harm; wishing a good friend or lover "sweet dreams" before bedtime is so common it's almost a habit!
To any diabetic friends out there, know that Jake didn't mean "sweet dreams" in the literal sense and that he wishes everyone a good night's sleep either way.
6 One Does Not Simply Walk Into The Land Of Ooo
It seems as if Finn is a fan of Lord of the Rings! In this meme, Finn is making history with Adventure Time's very own hilarious parody of the famous LOTR "one does not simply" meme. In the original, Boromir states that "one does not simply walk into Mordor," very sternly. Ever since the origin of this meme, it's been adapted in hundreds, if not thousands, of ways.
Finn definitely knows how to think like a true Adventure Time fan; quitting the show isn't as simple as it may seem. The Land Of Ooo holds so many fun adventures with tons of new friends, and it'd be a shame to say goodbye all of a sudden.
5 Too Good To Be True
As outrageous and fantasy-like Adventure Time is, it definitely has its moments where almost everyone can relate to some extent. This little bit Jake has about the "figment of his imagination" girlfriend may seem laughable at first, but almost everyone has had their moment of building up an imaginary partner in their head at one point or another in their lives.
Extroverted or introverted, everyone has their days when staying in with their special someone is what feels right as going out all the time can be exhausting of course. Hopefully, every Adventure Time fan that feels like they can relate to this meme will find their other half soon, and not just in the realm of their imagination.
4 Inner Demons Are Best Fought With Friends
Humans aren't perfect; in fact, they're far from it. Everyone has their own battles they struggle to fight every day, whether others can see it or not. This little clip from the show can easily be put into a different lens and interpreted in a much more mundane yet relatable way.
Taking time to stop and reflect on oneself and actions is important. It may seem tough to sort everything out at first, but just like how Finn has best friend Jake by his side, everyone should know that someone out there is always willing to lend a helping hand.
3 A Sour Relationship
Although Earl of Lemongrab may be incredibly high-strung and very obsessed with power, he still has his more vulnerable moments. Although he is very obviously void of eyebrows, lips, and many other micro details that a face has in order to express emotions vividly, Lemongrab still manages to let everyone know exactly how he's feeling. This meme perfectly captures Lemongrab in his most expressive state to paint a hilarious portrait of how dog owners feel versus cat owners.
At the end of the day, this particular meme is of course a playful jab at the cold reputation cats have. Canine or feline, surely all pet friends would be excited (or perhaps a little spooked) to see a lemon person appear at their doorway.
2 Exceptional Musical Range
Adventure Time's power couple, Princess Bubblegum (a.k.a. PB) and Marceline the Vampire Queen are the perfect example of how opposites can attract. Their chemistry is undeniable yet on the outside, they look like they wouldn't really get along.
While their aesthetics may be at the polar opposites of the spectrum, they complement and work with one another. This meme reflects how everyone can have incredible range when it comes to music taste. Everyone has their preferences, but music intertwines with emotion and finding the right tune for whatever today's mood is vital to having a productive day.
1 Independence At Its Finest
Lumpy Space Princess (a.k.a. LSP) is one character that many viewers may not have thought would be as relatable as she ended up being throughout Adventure Time. While most viewers may not be similar in status to LSP as the queen of Lumpy Space, the struggles she experiences when finally decides to move out of her family home, away from her beloved parents.
LSP's misadventures while out on her own included being raised by wolves and masquerading around as a small town's monster. LSP does eventually return home after realizing she simply wasn't ready yet to live on her own. Just like LSP, everyone needs to understand that there's no rush when taking that first big step towards independence.
