Memes are an amazing part of the emerging collective consciousness of the internet. They're videos or photos of everyday events or hilarious situations and stories that we all connect with, or that simply make us laugh.

To begin covering these memes, I present to you a video series that gained popularity in recent years called Charlie the Unicorn.

History of Charlie

The first Charlie video was released in as an animation test by Jason Steele as an animation test for his mother, and was released on the website Newgrounds in 2005.

However the video quickly caught popularity with the college crowds who were just beginning to massively network in 2006, and three subsequent videos were released.
