The Freshest Breath

Anyone who has had this experience can relate to this clever meme by RedditorBGamer9000. Kirby's expression while in Light Bulb Mouth perfectly expresses the sensation of extreme cold that results from mixing ice water with mint flavor. It even looks like Kirby is squinting, overcome by an arctic blast of air.

Of course, Light Bulb Mode doesn't give Kirby the power to freeze things the way the Ice copy ability does. Still, fans who have seen this meme can imagine that Light Bulb Mouth Kirby has exceptionally fresh breath.

Throwback To A Classic

Redditor teppakappanot only recognizes Kirby's meme potential, but also clearly appreciates the classics,bringing backthe Cereal Guy rage comics meme to illustrate how many fans felt duringthe reveal of Mouthful Mode at Nintendo Direct 2022.

Whatever Kirby fans anticipated, no one could have predicted that Kirby would become a vending machine. The Cereal Guy meme is a great choice to illustrate the shock that many fans experienced the first time they got a glimpse of Kirby's unexpected transformation.

Most people who see an orange traffic cone likely think of road work and detours. However,an orangetraffic cone is also the icon for the popular and free open source media player VLC. Thanks to @_janjeromeon Twitter, Kirby fans can never unsee this combination.

If the makers of VLC ever want to update their logo, Cone Mouth Kirby is a solid choice. In fact, fans of VLC and Kirby who want to customize their desktop icons can make this meme a reality thanks to RedditorPandaBot_2001,who created a downloadable version of the image.

The View From Inside

Anyone who wonders what the inside of the car that Kirby swallows while in Mouthful Mode looks like can wonder no more thanks to Philipp, who uploaded this edit to Know Your Meme.

The "two guys on a bus" meme is often used to illustrate positive and negative life choices and attitudes. In this case, however, no matter where the guys sit on the bus, the view is the same. Possibly the best detail of this meme is the welcome addition of Kirby's little feet sticking out the back.

The Most Dangerous Game

Kirby is unexpectedly crossed withSquid Game, one of Netflix's surprising hits of 2021, in this hilarious meme by @codaanim on Twitter. Kirby's Ring Mouth, Cone Mouth, and Vending Mouth modes are a perfect match for the symbols on the Squid Game invitation cards.

Any store that employed this strategy for notifying users that their pre-orders have come in would probably be successful, as this is a great marketing idea. Kirby would have a solid chance of winning Squid Game, making this unlikely mashup even funnier.

Living Your Best Life

Everyone has dreams of what their perfect life would be, the idealized version of themselves that they aspire to be. That tendency is nicely captured in this meme byRedditor JayValor21, who proudlyputs "the version of me who's [sic] life is perfect" on display.

Among the many cute additions toKirby and the Forgotten Landare the mini-figures that Kirby can collect and display. These figures can be found hidden in levels or can be purchased for star coins from a vending machine in Waddle-Dee town. Players who have the Kirby figure can recreate this meme by displaying the figure on the mantle in Kirby's house.

The Cutest Mouthful

Doubling down on cuteness, @estherdevil on Twitter shares this adorable suggestion for a new Mouthful Mode ability. Kirby is no stranger to swallowing adorable foes. For instance, Awoofy, a fuzzy orange and red dogwho is one of the new enemies introduced inKirby and the Forgotten Land, has captured the hearts of many fans of the franchise.

Swallowing a kitten may be the next logical step for Kirby, and would be a fitting ability to battle the canine Awoofy. In fact, if "Kitten Mode" werereal, itwould rank among Kirby's best copy abilities.

It's An Acquired Taste

Kirby's appetite is legendary, and swallowing things indiscriminately is part of Kirby's brand. Still, as this meme shared by Redditor ocdmonkeypoints out, Kirby swallows some pretty bizarre and disturbing things. Stairs Mouth in particular seems to disturb this Redditor's sister, and understandably so, since swallowing the staircase stretches Kirby to an awkward extent.

Fittingly, in this meme, Kirby is compared to a goat, an animal with a reputation for eating anything it sees. Like the goat, Kirby has an appetite for ingesting the undigestible and isn't stopping any time soon.

Conflicting Opinions

Fans ofTop Gearknow thathost Jeremy Clarksonis outspoken when it comes to voicing his opinion. This makes him perfect for this meme by Redditor tarnd01,which expresses how many fans of Kirby games feel about the Mouthful Mode abilities. While games need to innovate and add features, some fans feel that the Mouthful Mode abilities are too similar to the copy abilities that are a standard part of Kirby games.

Time will tell whether Mouthful Mode will return in future Kirby games. Regardless of how fans feel about their impact on gameplay, it's clear that Mouthful Modes have made an impression.

Target Ball Kirby

In a brilliant crossover promotion, many Targetstores are wrapping the trademark red bollards outside their stores with adorable Kirby covers. This, in turn, has led to some quality memes.

Anyone who has left their budget behind at the door while shopping canrelate to this reaction meme posted by user @typicalfrankion Twitter. For a being with minimal facial features, Kirby expresses an impressive range of emotions.Kirby's shocked expression encapsulates the feelingthat many people get when they realize they've overspent.
