There are certain memes that any ‘90s kid can understand. While this also includes the Backstreet Boys, the band’s ability to remain relevant almost three decades after its formation has meant that new and fresh memes continue to come up from fans.
These are hilarious to look through due to the shared sentiment between the fanbase. If you know one fan then you know them all, as the “Backstreet Boys army” has withstood the test of time and brought in younger fans as well. Due to this, a Backstreet Boys fan will have no problem understanding these 10 memes as these will feel extremely relatable.
10 Instant Best Friends
It doesn’t take much for someone to become friends with a Backstreet Boys fan. All you have to do is mention the band and the effect on diehard fans is instantaneous. In order to spot these people, just look around and see which one has the biggest smile on their face.
The funny thing about this is that a whole group of Backstreet Boys fans will have the same reaction, meaning you can become instant best friends with a lot of people at the same time.
9 The Greatest Disappointment
Isn’t it just the best feeling when you switch to a radio station at random and it plays a song you love? Well, the opposite of that is also possible and the feeling of disappointment attached to this is familiar for Backstreet Boys fans.
The fanbase prefers to listen to the songs right from the beginning, and the event of only catching the final few seconds is almost heartbreaking. After all, the charm of listening to the boys’ voices in their opening solos is something that can’t be replicated.
8 Even Liam Loves Them
They say you can find out your favorite Backstreet Boys song based on your zodiac sign. If that’s the case, then Liam Neeson is a Virgo personality. This meme suggests that “As Long As You Love Me” is the single of choice for the action star.
The idea here is thatTakenmight have been a much more peaceful movie had Liam simply belted out the chorus of this song on the phone. There’s no doubt every true Backstreet Boys fan did think of this song when Neeson said his famous dialogue in the movie.
7 A Difficult Living Situation
It’s been over twenty years but nobody is likely to forget the rivalry between Backstreet Boys and NSYNC. This used to tear down friendships, and it appears the person behind this meme might be considering moving away.
The problem here is that their neighbor happens to be an NSYNC fan, which is a big no-no for any Backstreet Boys purists out there. It might sound crazy to some, but people from the BSB fanbase can wholeheartedly sympathize.
6 Dark Fantasies
The Backstreet Boys are one of the few pop culture icons from the ‘90s who have remained relevant. So much so, that new fangirls who have been brought up in the social media age and can’t wait too long for new material have rather dark thoughts.
This one involves flirting with the idea of nabbing the boys themselves. Of course, this is clearly a joke, and it’s hilarious how oddly relatable this idea is since the fans can confirm they’ve had similar thoughts as well.
5 A Whole Lot Of Nope
Some younger fans like to argue if One Direction might be better than Backstreet Boys. Other people, who try to act aloof, take to make fun of fans of this band just for the heck of it. To these people, the Backstreet Boys army has a simple tactic of turning a blind eye and a deaf ear.
If you’re having any difficulty in picturing how this might be, then just take a look at this picture. Like how Ross, Chandler, and Joey have no care for others’ opinions, the same way Backstreet Boys fans have no time for talk against their favorite artists.
4 Say What, Sis?
The best way to get two siblings close to one another is to dangle some Backstreet Boys tickets in front of them. There won’t be room for any sibling rivalry when their favorite band is in the way, and the person behind this meme feels this way.
Some might consider themselves to be too cool for their sibling, but no Backstreet Boys fan can resist the chance to attend a concert when the chance arrives. And let’s face it, almost every fan has had this moment at least once.
3 Words As Songs
No matter where they might be, the Backstreet Boys will be remembered by fans. This isn’t limited to listening to their songs or watching their videos, but also within speech patterns. Seeing as the boys have made songs for pretty much any situation, fans find it easy to fit lyrics in conversations.
This can be in something as silly as the context provided within this meme. It’s actually one of the things that amuse a Backstreet Boys fan to come up with scenarios where they can use song lyrics as words for a conversation.
2 AJ Fans Will Understand
Out of each member of the band, it’s AJ McLean who has the most unique style. He’s reinvented his image time and again, usually retaining his bad-boy persona. This has garnered him his own special fanbase, and these fangirls will agree with this meme.
If asked which of the two options they think is cuter, the answer will be astoundingly in favor of AJ McLean. The singer has been looking especially shredded on Instagram lately, which has caused even more fangirls to steer his way.
1 Take Your Pick
Doing a “Then & Now” comparison for the Backstreet Boys is useless where the fanbase is concerned. This is because these people have always followed these guys for years, and are aware of what’s going on with them.
The level of dedication is because each member brings a certain appeal to the group, making the boys collectively an example of the perfect man. You can take your pick over which one’s your favorite, although the boys together is the best way to enjoy their act.
