1. Dad drags his daughter through an airport

2. Gordon Ramsay's sweet suffering on Hot Ones

Revenge is a dish best served extremely, extremelyhot. While many celebrities have tasted the dreaded hot sauce spread on this season of Hot Ones, none was more satisfying to watch than Gordon Ramsey. Although he's known for his fiery mouth, he gets absolutely wrecked. Who's the "idiot sandwich"now, Gordon?

Indie rock singer/songwriter Left At Londongot a shoutoutfrom Tyler, the Creator himself over a video she made breaking down his musical style to its essentials. She jokes about his lyrics, instrumentation choices, and themes of his albums — but it's a pitch perfect parody.

Every year we're collectively forced to make a decisionthat absolutely tears apart the fabric of the internet. Yanny vs. Laurel. The Dress. This year it was how a baguette would move, if it were sentient.

5. Dad put a mic on a 4-year-old during hockey practice

What's better than tiny humans attempting to play sports? Capturing the real-time commentary goldfrom such activities. YouTuber Coach Jeremy mic'd up his son Mason while he was out on the ice and got some hilarious audio. The video even had an adorable sequel.

7. Tati Westbrook's callout of James Charles

If you haven't been following the Beautube drama to end all dramas, we suggest you read our breakdown of the series of events here. In the back-and-forth between makeup gurus James Charles and Tati Westbrook, we would've chosen Westbrook's initial callout as one of the most influential videos of the year so far, titled "BYE SISTER." But that's since been taken down. Like all good internet feuds, this one ended in the Notes app.

8. Jeopardy! record-breaking single day winner

Whether or not you're a fan of Jeopardy!, James Holzhauer's record-breaking win is a feat worth watching. He beat the all-time record of highest winnings in a single day, taking home $131,127.

9. Security camera captures a Dobby-like creature

Even though it's easier now than ever before to doctor photos and videos, we all can't help but love a good unexplained mystery. Vivian Gomez posted a video to Facebook of a security camera capturing an alien-like creature outside her home. It would havebeen terrifying, had it not looked like Dobby the house-elf from Harry Potter. At least we can all laugh the creepy vibes away this time.

10. Turtle ASMR

Little turtles eating little foods by a pond was certainly one of the more wholesome moments of 2019. These tiny reptiles brought a calming stability to an otherwise chaotic year. Perhaps the most crucial thing we learned in 2019 was that turtles can have a little watermelon, and that turtle ASMR is cute as (s)hell.

11. Real-life recreation of ‘The Simpsons’ New Orleans food tour

Designer and illustrator Katrin von Niederhäusern nailed this recreation of The Simpsons New Orleans food tour scene. Everything was perfect, from the food, to the reactions, to the camera angles. It's fair to say we have our first great Simpsons live-action, shot-for-shot remake. Your move, Disney.

12. Truck ends up on top of a house

Go ahead and file this one under "things we think just cannot happen until Canada proves us wrong." A dashcam captured the moment this rental truck veered off into a ditch before it was launched, landing on some unlucky person's roof. Nobody was hurt, thankfully, but it doesn't make anyone feel good to know one day they might look up and see a truck, of all things, plummeting toward them. Stay safe out there, people.

13. The Greta Thunberg Helpline

Teen climate activist Greta Thunberg has had a spectacular year. Angry boomers who don't like Thunberg, on the other hand, have not. For those people, satirist Mark Humphries gave us the Greta Thunberg Helpline: For adults angry at a child. Do you need to rant to a stranger about a girl trying to bring awareness to climate change? Here's your chance. Except, not really.

14. Pup vibin' to "Sunflower"

View this post on Instagram

Remember when the coolest dog in the universe was head bobbing to Post Malone and Swae Lee's "Sunflower" from the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack? If you can't find anything to like about this video, then you're obviously not even looking.

15. Wheel of Fortune contestant's "loveless marriage"

Whew, this was incredibly awkward, at least until we found out it was a joke. This Wheel of Fortune contestant named Blair used his introduction to quip about his "loveless marriage" and for a second he really had us going. Of course he was joking, but the shock of this highly unusual gameshow intro is still with us.

16. That video bomb

One minute you're getting ready, brushing your teeth, dancing, making a fun video, and having a good time. The next? You're on the ground wondering what the hell just happened and why you're in pain. Then, it hits you: Your roommate just decked you with a caution sign and stole your perfectly harmless video. This viral moment served as a "cautionary" tale about wild and hilarious roommates.

17. Football Cat

Cats would take over the world if we let them, and this 2019 moment of a cat running onto the field during Monday Night Football promptly reminded us of that. The cat stole the show and became the internet's latest obsession. It's as if everyone forgot there was a game happening right in front of them.
