17 Memes Featuring Zoomer Slang & Hairstyles Get Smooshed Together And Added To Our Favorite Movie And TV Characters
It all started when 4chan users began sharing pictures of children with 'Broccoli Hair,' otherwise known as the 'Zoomer Perm.'
4chan has a long history of turning random internet obsessions into memes, and this one starts with a haircut that nobody is exactly defending. The “Zoomer perm,” also called “broccoli hair,” became the target of jokes, then got photoshopped onto famous faces and movie characters for even more chaos.
What makes these memes work is the combination of awkward hairstyles, familiar characters, and slang that sounds like it was invented mid-laugh. The result is a batch of images that are equal parts confusing and funny, especially once the captions start piling on.
By the time the trend really took off, the jokes were already out of control. These are the ones that hit the hardest.

Even though we’re aware that the Zoomer ‘dos and Zoomer slang are pretty weird... when they’re integrated into these memes, we kind of like them. Despite not knowing what these memes are talking about, there’s just something about the trinity of individuals or characters.
For example, there’s Patrick Bateman, Zoomerang, and the hairstyles that make for especially hilarious memes. It is one that almost equals 'It’s Morbin’ Time.'
That’s the kind of internet nonsense that sticks around.
