Memes are funny, quirky, often ridiculous and to some even essential to take their mind of all the grown-up stuff that keeps us busy from day to day. As such, it came to our attention that there was a serious lack of Mendix memes to express how we truly feel at times, so we set out to fix that.

Is such a thing even possible? Why yes, it is!

The contest

From April 20 to April 23 we ran a Mendix meme contest, asking the community to submit their funniest and most creative memes. Lo and behold, we received 71 submission through our Community Slack! They had us regularly laughing out loud in our home offices. The winners were picked based on the number of 😂 reactions and received 100 points towards their Mendix level!

Here are the top 3:

“Theirs/mine” by Austin McNicholas
“objectgone” by Maarten Bongers
“You can’t get conflicts” by Paul Ketelaars

We also picked a couple of staff favorites, awarded with a bonus 50 points.

“Inline styling” by Jason Teunissen
“jQuery” by Thijs van der Meer

What is your favorite?
