What is a congratulations meme?

A congratulations meme is simply an image or video with a “congratulations” message written over it. It is a “Gen Z” way of felicitating someone who has reached a particular milestone, such as academic achievement, career, relationship and other forms of achievement.

Every day, someone somewhere has a reason to celebrate. Gone are the days when one is limited to buying a hard copy of a congratulatory card. Now, you can do that digitally and sending a meme is one of the creative ways to do so.

Top 10 congratulations meme

1. When you are genuinely happy for someone

The world may be a wicked place but there is still a lot of love to share. There are people that you genuinely care about. You are happy when they are happy and sad when they are sad. When they achieve something remarkable, even something as simple as passing mathematics in their WAEC (lol), you are ready to throw a party to congratulate them.

2. When your boss is a workaholic

Nothing gives a workaholic joy than work and more work. They are always busy and hardly have a social life. Even when they take a little break to sleep, they are probably working during their dreams. If you have a boss who is a workaholic, sorry is your name. The highest they will do is give a bland congratulations for your achievement and order you back to work. The really wicked ones will pile more work on your desk as a “reward” especially if your achievement is work-related.

3. When you are pretending to be happy for someone

Pretenders are dangerous people. Outwardly, they seem genuinely happy for you. But inwardly, they have already bought your coffin. The problem is there are really good pretenders. If you are gifted enough to identify them, stay away before they destroy you with their dark hearts.

4. When you are bitter, but say congratulations anyway

While there are some great pretenders, there are those who cannot pretend at all. For them, what you see is what you get because it is exactly how they feel. In other words, what they say is usually the opposite of their facial expressions. These types of people may be terrible. However, you can always tell how they feel about you and act accordingly, unlike pretenders who are willing to hug you with a knife hidden behind their back.

5. When you cannot believe a person’s achievement

We know that one person that everyone has written off as useless. This may be due to their past deeds. However, change is the only constant thing in life. A rejected stone can be a cornerstone. Hence, the so-called useless person may shock everyone when they do something so amazing that it can be beyond everyone’s comprehension. The dog in the meme is the expression on your face when a “useless” person surprises you.

6. When you are trying to maintain your steeze

That your best friend bought a new car does not mean you should go crazy in the name of congratulating them. You have got to maintain your “steeze” by showing that while you are happy for them, you are cool about it. People may misinterpret your “steeze” as jealousy but that should not bother you, especially if your friend understands the type of person you are.

7. When you are being sarcastic

Life is not supposed to be hard. There are troublemakers everywhere. These people do not admit their wrongs but are quick to point out people’s faults. Hence, they are known as drama kings and queens. You have to be smart and calm to get through to them. One of the most effective weapons against these people is sarcasm. Use it on your troublesome friend and thank me later.

8. When a creepy person says congratulations

If you are a fan of thrillers and horror movies, you will know to steer clear of creepy people. They are usually not hard to spot as something about their looks and behaviours usually sends alarm bells ringing in your head. What will you do if a creepy person walks up to you to congratulate you?

9. When you are congratulating someone who is in pain

Well, they say there is always something positive in any negative situation. Anyone who is going through tough times should always be encouraged to be better. You have to make your bedridden friend feel better even if they are suffering from a terminal illness. Congratulate them for any little milestone, including taking a simple step after several failed attempts.

Your words of encouragement may be a balm to their tormented souls. You never know, your positive attitude can turn things around in their favour. Never stop being a true friend whether in good times or in bad times.

10. Everybody gets a congratulations

There is always something to celebrate. If you are in Nigeria, the fact that you can afford a balanced three-square meal a day is worthy of celebration. The fact that you can go about your daily activities with no need to attend a hospital is a reason to celebrate because those bills are not smiling.

Instead of lamenting about what you have missed or do not have, take a little time to think about the positive things in your life. Count your blessings and congratulate yourself on your achievements so far.
