TheDragon Ball series is one that is full of some of the earliest memes there are. Memes of this series have filled the internet since what feels like the beginning of time. In fact, with shows around likeDragon Ball Abridged, it's clear that not only the action, characters, and iconic moves are huge parts of the series's legacy, but the fan-made comedy as well.

One piece of this fan-made comedy comes from cracking jokes constantly at the series's expense. These jokes don't just come from intentionally funny moments, but mostly the weirdest and even at times the most serious moments. One of those moments is Yamcha's death at the hands of a Saibaman during the Saiyan Saga, a moment that has transcended into legendary meme status on a global level.

One has to wonder if the pie truly represents the Saibaman explosion crater that killed Yamcha, or if Yamcha fell asleep atop a warm pie. Either way, it's a hilarious meme.
