The Canadian television sitcom created by Daniel and Eugene Levy tells the story of The Roses - a ridiculously rich, multi-billion dollar family... that is, until they lose it all. With characters like Moira and Alexis who find joy in designer handbags and new shoes and the men in the family Johnny and David who really have never worked a day in their lives, it might sound like there isn't anything you can relate to on Schitt's Creek, but that's absolutely untrue.
With comedy as good as gold, Schitt's Creek proves that underneath riches and money and materialism, are the funniest, warm-hearted people that are just trying to navigate their way through the world and are just as vulnerable as most of us. Here are 10 Schitt's Creek Memes that are just too hilarious for words!
Ready ... Set ... Give me Attention!
In the world of social media, no matter how laid back you might think you are, secretly wanting attention or interaction with your followers or fellow friends online is not that much of a secret. It's the thing that everyone looks for every time they log on to Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram, but the person who exudes this confidence in real life? Moira Rose.
Unafraid to demand attention, knowing full well she deserves praise, Moira is someone who is never shy about receiving applause. She is the real-life model of the party not starting until she steps foot in the room.
It's MY TURN to take a selfish
On Schitt's Creek, siblings David and Alexis are only just now learning how to live a life without luxury. After losing all their family's money, self-sacrifice and sharing is something that both of them have to learn to navigate through, especially during Season 1.
David tells Alexis, "It's my turn to take a selfish!" after she expresses wanting to go out while David stays in to keep their parents' company. The funny phrase is used by tons of people on the internet, mostly in relation to when people believe they deserve something they want!
Alexis enjoying her OWN company
The hilarious thing about this meme is that if you've ever watched the show and gotten to know Alexis, you would know that she is the kind of person who loves to be with other people. She loves to please others and be around good company, so for her to say she would enjoy her own company for a night became a joke among the Roses.
But not to the internet! This Alexis meme is used widely all the time when people express their desires to stay at home alone rather than going. It's all about self-care!
You're my Mariah Carey
When David and Patrick finally feel a little more comfortable in their relationship, Patrick tells David, "You're my Mariah Carey," playing off the idea that Carey is David's idol - someone he absolutely loves and adores. This meme is cute, sentimental, and super funny, as David would probably be the only person to understand this compliment.
The internet is a huge fan of it though! Fans of the show use this quote to constantly praise and even honor the actors on the show. Mariah Carey, herself even loves the line!
Fall off a bridge, PLEASE
This line from David is so sassy and funny that it's hard to believe anyone on the internet wouldn't laugh at it. It's just the David Rose way of saying, "I wish you the absolute worst!"
Used as an insult, this meme has circulated around social media many times. It's great for comebacks, especially during heated arguments, but it also sparks a good laugh when you're taunting your friends. Who wouldn't want to be told they're being annoying by David Rose? The comebacks the characters say on this show are absolute gold.
Johnny's misguided sentiment
One thing that The Roses never really had to do was live with each other all at the same time in their adult lives. With all the money they could dream of, Alexis was off traveling the world. Moira was off trying to be a Hollywood actress, but when they lose all their money, a lot of family drama arises.
The parents get accused of never having been around. Johnny reassures David and Alexis by saying, "I would never just abandon you two in a motel in the middle of nowhere," and because the entirety of Schitt's Creek takes place in the motel they now live in, this meme is the ultimate joke.
Ew, David!
"Ew, David!" has become Alexis's signature line and a total fan favorite. The two siblings are always constantly bickering and fighting on the show, mocking each other for embarrassing things they've done in the past and getting on each other's nerves. But when David does something Alexis can't stand, she never fails to remind him where he went wrong.
The great thing about this line is that it's made it's way into real life! Actor Dan Levy even gets it shouted at him by fans when walking in public or at the gym!
David's facial expressions never fail
This screenshot of David in absolute horror from a scene on the show is the perfect reaction photo to use when you need to express shock at something you've seen or read on the internet. David's character is so expressive that you'll never fail to find an emotion that you can't screenshot and use for a meme, but this one is "Oh. My. God." personified.
People use it everywhere online! From reactions that are meant to mean, "I can't believe you did that," or "What did I just watch?" this meme is the perfect one to use.
What basic life skills don't I have?
Growing up rich, David and Alexis both have never really had to ever work a day in their lives to make money. In this quote from the show, he already tells us that he has absolutely no idea how to cook, but still thinks he already knows everything he needs to navigate through life. A tragic life plus the denial makes for a hysterical meme.
When you don't want to take responsibility for something or are afraid to start "adulting" or are just complaining that you'd really rather not be at work tomorrow, the thought about not knowing how to cook on top of not doing the thing you're supposed to be doing makes using this as a meme of the funniest jokes ever.
NO! NO!
In what is arguably the MOST iconic scene on the entire show, Moira in this screencap is clutching her wigs and yelling "No!" while sobbing at the people who have just come in to repossess the Rose house. This is the show's very first scene, showing that they've lost all their money. It also makes for the most hilarious meme ever.
When you don't want something to happen or your favorite character dies on your favorite show or you just need to tell the internet that you don't want to go to work because the weekend is over, this horrified expression of disbelief and sadness is the perfect one to use!
