(我和我的小伙伴都惊呆了 Wǒ hé wǒ de xiǎo huǒbàn dōu jīng dāile): Meme used for surprise and bewilderment. Originated in 2013 in a primary school student's essay.〔(ChinaSMACK glossary, accessed 17 February 2015 )〕 *"I would rather cry in a BMW" — a 2010 phrase coined by Ma Nuo, a 21-year-old contestant on the game show ''Fei Cheng Wu Rao'', when asked by a suitor whether or not she would go ride on his bicycle with him on a date. The phrase became a meme and caused an outcry on the internet and led to serious soul-searching about materialism in early 21st Century Chinese society. *Jia Junpeng (贾君鹏 Jiǎ Jūnpéng) — A post on the Baidu Tieba World of Warcraft forum which attracted more than 400,000 viewers and 17,000 replies, despite only consisting of the text "Jia Junpeng, your mother is calling you home for dinner". *Jinkela (金坷垃 Jīnkēlā) — a Chinese fertilizer product with television advertisements deemed so ridiculous and amusing to the point where it became a widespread meme in mainland China and Taiwan. * "Just out getting some soy sauce" (打酱油 dǎjiàngyóu): In 2008, Edison Chen, a celebrity from Hong Kong, was involved in a nude photo scandal which shocked many around the world. A Guangzhou journalist attempted to interview an ordinary man on the street about the incident. The man said that he knew nothing about it, and was "just out getting some soy sauce." After that, this became a very popular internet meme, used to indicate that some people don't care about what goes on in society, or that bigger issues don't concern them because they are powerless to affect the outcome anyway.〔 *Luo Yufeng (罗玉凤; Luó Yùfèng) — gained significant attention in late 2009, after passing out flyers in Shanghai seeking a marriageable boyfriend with extreme demands. *"My dad is Li Gang!"

This incident sparked wide forms of parody on the Internet, and also questioned the credibility of the state broadcaster's newscasts.〔 *Very good very mighty (很好很强大; hěn hǎo hěn qiáng dà) — a common catchphrase found throughout Chinese forums, and has many different variants. *Xianxingzhe (先行者; xiānxíngzhě) — the first bipedal humanoid robot in China, commonly subject to parody and ridicule on the Internet.〔(The forerunner advances to a new century, People's Daily, November 30, 2000.
