Designer Evan Roth is responsible for some of the most memorable and outrageous work of this generation (think the 'BAD A#$ MOTHER F@%^&!' project). Thus, it's only right that Evan Roth release a [net culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slow-internet) video of epic proportions.

Cleverly named 'Cache Rules Everything Around Me,' the 10-minute clip consists only of GIFs. GIFs are short, uncomplicated [animations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superflat-animation) that the mass online community uses predominantly for humor. Set to the music of 'Girl Talk,' Evan Roth's masterpiece has been referred to as "being punched in the face by the Internet for 10 minutes." Epic indeed.
