As the daffodils bloom and the cherry trees blossom, the onset of spring signals a very important moment in internet history – ‘It’s Gonna Be May Day’.
To the uninitiated, it’s when memesters of the world unite to celebrate the moment Justin Timberlake pronounced ‘me’ with such an intense twang that it came out ‘May’ in an NSYNC song.
That’s right, everyone’s favourite Mickey Mouse star sang ‘It’s gonna be ME’ with such force in the boy band’s 2000 smash hit It’s Gonna Be Me that it became a viral sensation.
Every year (since 2012) on April 30, the gifs come out and the memes begin. Don’t feel sorry for JT though – he celebrates it too.
