It's been 13 years since the first season of Dance Moms aired, and in hindsight, it's wild that the show lasted more than one season, and we're still talking about it today. We all know that reality TV has been exploitative since the genre's inception, but until this Lifetime show, it wasn't "rank a group of children on a pyramid from worst to best weekly" level of exploitative. According to Abby Lee Miller, ranking young dancers was supposed to motivate them to do better. She claimed that since high schools had valedictorians, so did dance studios. The only problem with that analogy is that high schools don't post pictures of their valedictorians on the wall above all the other students and broadcast the humiliating failure of their lowest-ranking students to an international audience. Ranking people is one thing, but ranking memes is totally ethically sound. We're not afraid to broadcast the top 28 memes of today to you, so please enjoy these top-shelf memes.
