Kim Kardashian's Paper magazine cover broke the internet last year.
And
The Bachelor Australia's grand finale also sent social media into a frenzy on Thursday night as fans went into meltdown, posting stomach crunching memes.
But it was one particular fan who summed up many's thoughts with one simple caption.
The self-created meme featured the mocking caption 'Thank God I didn't get that ring' which ran over the top of an image of runner up Lana Jeavons-Fellows smirking while resting her hand on her head in relief.
Another fan jumped on the Sam Wood-designed ring bandwagon collaborating The Bachelor and Mean Girls into one.
The meme, which has received over 15,000 likes on Facebook, features a picture collage of Sam placing the ring on Snezena Markoski's hand and another image of Regina George pulling a screwed up facial expression.
'That is the ugliest effing ring I've ever seen,' was plastered over the image in large white capital letters.
While fans took digs at Sam's $20,000 Zamels ring others poked fun at the show itself.
One dedicated fan compared Sam's father Andrew to take-away food giant, Colonel Sanders from KFC, while another made the comparison between the Bachelor and Lana and The Little Mermaid's evil Ursula and Prince Eric.
Another viewer took aim at the Melbourne businessman, sharing a screenshot from the show of him laughing along with the caption: 'Just figured out what 'Lana' spelt backwards is.'
Just hours after the finale aired even Sam himself decided to jump on board, posting a meme which poked fun at himself and his new lover.
'@luyamiel quotes; "match made in heaven". You really nailed this,' he captioned an image showing Sam as Woody from Toy Story and Snezana as a chicken parmigiana.
Earlier on in the series fans again took to social media to show off their comedic side, comparing the man of the moment to infamous, foul-mouthed duo Beavis and Butthead and Monsters Inc's favourite purple lizard-like beast Randall.
Meanwhile,
BuzzFeed Australia likened Sam to The Simpson's Vincent Price who shares his 'sexy moustache' and 'cheeky eyes'.
The nose, the smile and even Price's work with children meant this comparison was spotted on.
