To commemorate a year filled with hilarity, the Algonquin TVB have released an amazing compilation of the best memes of 2012.

The festive and witty short features an enthusiastic troop from Algonquin College led by students Nick Tessier and Caroline Marchand as well as an original song performed by the talented Jonathan Estabrooks that is instantaneously infectious. With a slew of material, the team got to work and conjured up a ridiculous list of memes. Highlights of the video included recaps of the presidential election and viral gossip memes. Who can forget Kony 2012, Mitt Romney’s distaste for Big Bird and everyone’s favorite feline, The Grumpy Cat? Reminiscing about them will leave you in stitches.
