It has finally happened, true believers: Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio won an Oscar. For years, the Internet has made a mockery of DiCaprio, creating an abundance of funny memes and gifs that have chronicled the actor’s struggle with the Academy’s snubs. Starring in over two-dozen films, winning over 40 awards and nominated for six Academy Awards, DiCaprio was always a bridesmaid, never a bride.

That all changed last night. Finally, for his work in “The Revenant,” DiCaprio took home the Oscar for Best Actor.

So now that he has finally walked down the aisle and said “I do,” the Internet’s obsession with Leonardo DiCaprio Oscar Fail memes will eventually come to an end. However, let’s take one last trip down memory lane and enjoy some of the best of the best before we retire them for good.

A classic Nickelodeon children’s show meets the struggles of the beloved Leo DiCaprio. In The Fairly OddParents, a running trope is Dad’s competitive nature — his outbursts when he comes in second place create the perfect inspiration for a DiCaprio’s Oscar Fail Meme.

What makes this meme work is its relation to the millennial generation who vividly remember this scene in The Fairly OddParents and have pioneered the meme movement. It perfectly encapsulates the internal anger DiCaprio supporters feel.

This meme shows DiCaprio seated at the 2013 Golden Globes, this screen capture of a tight lipped DiCaprio mocks another DiCaprio Oscar Fail in real time. Edited with the yellow caption, “[screams internally],” this simple meme has held the test of time.

Although this was not the Academy Awards, the image has symbolized the struggle of DiCaprio losing awards he rightfully deserves.

The image with this meme shows a forlorn DiCaprio after losing yet another Academy Award. The classic meme layout and the sad puppy dog eyes DiCaprio has on display is the epitome of what the Leonardo DiCaprio Oscar Fail Meme is. It mocks DiCaprio while partially sympathizing with him.

Despite the mockery, meme makers have always been on team Leo. The classic leading man has been immortalized by these internet memes.

Now that he has finally won an Academy Award, DiCaprio’s Oscar meme will have the fate of other popular memes but will never be forgotten. Congrats on the win Leo!
